As you would know there are a few Warren's on the same ship as your James.
What i found interesting tho is that James and George both noted as having red hair. Wonder if there is a family connection there as i wouldnt think you would have to many Warren's, from the same area, on the same ship with red hair.

Not having much luck finding any Warrens in Mitcham, Mitcham and Carshalton are 2 separate towns in Surrey, quite close to eachother though. Will try and find some Carshalton records.

Interestingly I found a james Warren born around the same time found guilty at the age of 15 in 1824 and transported for 7 years.

Dear james warren hunters can I throw in a perspective.
The James warren we want stole a goose from the Howard family in surrey area. History tells us that the de warrene family from will the conqueror morphed into the Howard's over time who are still earls. So my theory james family peasents who lived near and or worked for Howard estate. So who knows about Howard's in the area and try and track their family history to cross reference james family. Cheers. Ps the actual court records sit in surrey historical society and name howard as the aggrieved party.
Cheers
