this is possibly Jane's birth. She was born before they married, so probably Daniel is not the father. She was given the name Hunt, born to Susannah

info about 1841 census ages
The ages of people over 15 years old were usually rounded down to the nearest 5 years. Therefore, someone who was actually 24 years would have their age listed as 20, and someone who was actually 27 years old would have their age listed as 25.

Thank for all being so helpful. So the surname is Kempton and not as originally thought Rempton?

Thanks again,
