If the age on the 1841 census is right, there is a possible baptism for him on Findmypast, Benjamin King in Beccles in 1783. I haven't got a sub to view it, though...

ooo Thanks for that! I haven't looked at this line for ages and don't know how I missed the 1841 ref.

You've got me back another generation with his parents too!!!!

Thank you!
