That would normally be true, but there were special rules for the 1841 census saying ages should be rounded down, so an age of 20 means 20-24.
This looks like a likely marriage for Thomas and Elizabeth:
Apr-Jun 1845 Bradford Yk, Elizabeth Arundale and Thomas Jones, vol 23, page 246. There are other names on the same page, so we can't be sure that these two married each other, but fingers crossed! I seem to remember Arundale turning up as a possible variant of the surname somewhere along the way?
