Your message was addressed to "Pat" but I got it so am assuming you meant "Peg".
Unfortunately names are spelled differently from one census to the next. It's pretty commom for both first and last names. Sometimes one census will list them all by thier first names and the next one uses thier middle names.
Ages aren't immune either, I've seen people age 15-20yrs over a ten year time span. Places of birth can change from one census to the next, too.
I would say this was the same family.
Good luck
Peg
