Dave, my guess for David Oldham's census was that he was answering where the clan came from in europe rather than where his parents were born. Just a guess, as the Bartons were from England and Looney sounds like it might be Irish.

Thanks for the images. They match pretty close to the dates I have, with typical "census variation". (I don't think I have an ancestor whose data correlates exactly to all of the census records that I have found. Maybe that's an exaggeration; I've never systematically checked, but census data is really dangerous.) Terry
