1851 census[2] shows Grace Aze living at Instow Quay, Parish of Instow, age 97. Occupation: pauper. Born in Barnstaple.
The two censuses are 10 years apart but her ages differ by 13 years. Probably the second age (97) is wrong. We know that at the time of the 1851 census she was in the last 3 months of her life and may not have been clear thinking. It may be that in the 1851 census she gave the year of birth of her late husband, through confusion.
