Who is nephew David Miller in 1871 census?

can anyone add family knowledge to my ID of his being the David Cunningham born 1863 Kippen to Helen Cunningham and David Miller?

Did Elizabeth's age really vary that much over the census? ie are all the entries shown THIS Elizabeth?

1841 census rounded down to 20 so 20-24, which fits 1817 baptism

1851 census 33, implies 1818

1861 census 35, implies 1826

1871 census 42 implies 1829

1881 census 52 implies 1829

1891 census 70 implies 1821
