hi fellow searchers if anyone is checking the parish births could they check for my great grand dad James oliver who is on the 1851 census as born in stonesfield 1805.He gets wed in 1830 to Jane smith from bristol in whitechapel st mary london but as a widower.I am trying to find out if he married in stonesfield at a young age.He was a servant and became a butler in hanover square.
help much appreciated

Cannot see a marriage for James at Stonesfield (lots of OLIVERs there though !)
This looks a possible baptism for him:-
24 July 1803-James OLIVER s Jonathan
other entries have John & Sarah or Jon
Marriage-25 December 1779 at Stonesfield
John OLIVER,b
Sarah PAINTER sp botp
Wit=James Oliver/William Hounslow
