Benjamin Rhodes of Gatton, Surrey 1780

[condesa]

Hi, I’m trying to find a marriage / family / burial of Benjamin Rhodes (also spelt Rodes/Roads/ Roades /Rhoads/Rhoades). 

He was born 18/4/1780 and baptised 7/5/1780 at St Andrews, Gatton, Surrey.  His parents were Thomas Rodes and Sarah Carter. He had 4 younger siblings born in Gatton and I believe 5 older siblings born in Merstham.

 I know he had at least one son, William, born approx. 1804.  It is a bit of a mystery when and where William was born as William gives different birth places in the censuses:- 1851 – Banstead, 1861 – Wotton, 1871 – On the sea, 1881 – Gibraltar.  William married Emma Pain 25/9/1842 in Limpsfield and was buried in Warlingham on 10/3/1888.

Any help tracing Benjamin would be appreciated.
Thanks, Susan

A family tree has his death abt 1850 in Surrey so if correct he should be on the 1841 census.

Does the marriage for son William give an occupation for his father?

When William married, Benjamin's occupation was recorded as labourer.

I haven't been able to find Benjamin in the 1841 census.  I've looked at Gatton, where he was born, Limpsfield where William married and Warlingham, where William lived.

When William married their name was recorded as Roads.

Thanks
