If this couple moved to Kilkhampton, some of the later children could be their’s instead?
Checked 1841 and 1851 census for St Juliot (links in genUKI) - lots of Cornishes but no Daniel - http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kayhin/40140a.html#BK7
[GenUKI: St Juliot is located on the north Cornwall coast; it is bounded on the north by St Gennys, on the east by Otterham, on the south by Davidstow and Lesnewth, and on the west by Minster, Forrabury and the Bristol Channel.]

This is for a different and slightly older Roger CORNISH:
- 1841: age 59 [born 1782], living in Kilkhampton, Cornwall, England - if born in 1795, he would have been 46. This is actually a different Roger Cornish (chr. 24 May 1783 in Kilkhampton) who married a Grace Elliot there in 1814). This older Roger was the base born son of Grace Cornish (1754-1818), d/o Philip Cornish and Mary Adams. Roger and Grace Cornish had children in Holsworthy Devon (C05113-1): John Cornish chr 9 Feb 1823, William Cornish chr 3 Oct 1824. Same parents in Bradworthy Devon: Thomas Cornish chr 26 May 1821. Not this Roger...

- 1851 death? (from another ancestry tree) - I don’t think so. The Cornwall OPC index lists a 1851 burial for a Roger Cornish age 69 [b. 1782], residence Kilkhampton, Churchtown, buried 8 Oct 1851 Kilkhampton.
On 19 Jan 1817 when Roger was 22, he married Mary SKITCH in Stratton, Cornwall, England. Born ca 1795.
