Strange kidnapping

The hell?

To clarify, the kidnapper did steal a child, but it's listing him as a peasant. I think what happened is that he grew up to a peasant half way through the kidnapping. I checked his page through his brother's relationships and it lists him as a peasant who is 12 years old. So growing up halfway through doesn't help evidently.
If your wondering about the name; I name my dwarves according to what migrant wave and order they arrived the map (he was in the 1st wave and 8th on the map).

Your thoughts?

No.  He became an adult on his next (first at the fortress) birthday, according to the person that got him as a migrant.

Badass goblin snatcher. Kid magically turns into an adult, and the goblin wrestles him to the edge of the map anyway.

"Oh, you're an adult now? Oh, what's that? Hell no, I'm not going back for another kid! Screw that, you're mine!"

At least yours did his job right, sorta. The last kidnapper I got wound up killing the kid and pushing him off a 4-z drop.

How he managed to not get shot by the kid's mom I'l never know bu the's one lucky son of a bitch.
