WOW all of these whilst i've been dealing with my kiddie winkles lol

Ruskie,yup thats what 've been doing,just treating it as the same name:) No i havent found any wlls whatsoever and have no clue why he was in the workhouse as the records were destroyed :( Sods law eh!!
I could find no menton of a bilney in Helmingham before William although there wa a Ann Whiting married there in 1704,poss a relation..But that was the last mention of her .
Jaywit,he was 82 years old when he died,yes there where quite a few Bilneys around but have found no connection as yet to any

It looks like there were a few Whitings in Helmingham which possibly brings us back to William being either Bilney then his mother married a Whiting or Bilney mother being single and naming a Whiting as his father.

So I think the PRs of the surrounding villages need looking at.

If this is an idea that has not been investigated then may I suggest investigating the death and burial of the mother, if and when she becomes known. It is not uncommon for spouses of first marriages to be interred together dispite there being a second marriage and many decades between the two deaths.

have i missed something ? if he was 70 on the 1841 census and 82 when he died that means he died circa 1853 whch means he should be on the 1851 census which means you should be able to get where he says he was born ?

you may not have to go to the records office you could email them and ask.
the land tax records for 1798 are at The National Archives so i think it would be worth emailing them and asking how much it would cost to send you a copy you are only looking at Helmingham

The NBI has the following

21st April 1849 William Bilney 82 Helmingham St Mary.

If this is him then it fits with the 1841, remembering that the 1841's are rounded down so 70 gives a range 70 to 74 so a calculated birth of between 1767 and 1771. 1767 as a birth year fits.
