As the first named Warren was Dorset(?), then why not assume that the Ware mentioned was also in Devon?

Could be that the census taker assumed/knew of Herts and/or Kent but not Devon.

Does anyone know where I can find more information on Edward Davies Warren's parents? (James and Sarah)

Apologies, Augustus Warren was born c. 1846.
Information on him that I have, which I am fairly sure is accurate, is that he was a schoolkeeper of the Leipsic Road school in Camberwell during the 1870/80s. Before 1860 he is somewhat a mystery. However, I have found an Augustus Warren who goes some way to fitting the bill born in Ware, Kent in some earlier census records, but he is marked as a Fireman, which seems an odd departure in career - fireman to schoolkeeper? perhaps an injury caused the career change.
Would just appreciate any information really!

I read the Augustus Warren string with interest. Is there any chance that he went by the name of "Guss Warren"? I've been holding on Warren's 1881 Camberwell census identifying him as a schoolkeeper on thinking he might be the same Guss Warren who was a Sunday school teacher who signed and gave a Bible to my great grandfather Richard Allen August 10, 1877, in Handcross, Sussex (which I have). But not sure if I can connect the dots between Marylebone fireman to Handcross, Sussex Sunday School.
