This tree owner doesn't agree: https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/person/tree/72589823/person/36264380729/facts

What do they say it is? I don’t use Ancestry at present so can’t use your link.

The tree owner says:  "Love Lane, Stradbroke, Suffolk, England
see husbands willed proved 1837 not Shadwell, Middlesex, England"

They also link to the 1851 census which clearly says birth county Middlesex but the place is not clear
