Hi,

I’ve had another look and these are the only Thomas Webster Rutland baptisms I can see around the correct time frame:

21 April 1799,  Thomas Webster, S/O John/Sarah,  Caldecott.
23 Sep 1804, Thomas Layton Webster, S/O William & Ann, Little Casterton.
8 Jan 1809,  Thomas Webster, S/O Robert/Sarah,  Exton.

My records go up to abt 1812. There are others but they are for 1787 and before.

 :)

Edit:- I have found the Thomas Webster born in 1809 in Exton in the 1851 (Northamptonshire) census (not Peakirk), so if you are sure your Thomas is the one in Peakirk then I think it’s pretty safe to assume the Exton baptism is not the correct one. 

In the 1841 census there is a Thomas Webster born abt 1801 in Rutland living in Morcott, unfortunately it doesn’t say where in Rutland he was born. He has died by the 1851 census (as his wife is a widow on it). I would think he may be the Thomas baptised in 1799 but I have no solid proof yet!
