Birth Info - James Perrin

[Elliefantasy]

If anyone could help I am very stuck with James Perrin.
1881 census shows him married to a Harriet (who I know to be a Beasley) in Shirbourn which is in Oxfordshire. I have found a birth record for a James Perrin in Henley in 1843 but on the 1881 census, he is listed as being born in 1848 in Hambleden which was a Bucks town at that time. The record is a copy of a handwritten record and has no other information. Harriet was from Stoke Talmage in Oxfordshire.

I have found a James Perrin aged 9 in Henley Union Workhouse Henley on Thames in the 1861 census, birth around 1852. There is are a few perrins in the workshouse, a T Perrin there who is 13 (there is a thomas perrin in there in the 1851 census aged 2 along with an Ann Perrin aged 4 and an Elizabeth Perrin aged 29) 

If anyone has any records about James (his marriage certificate to Harriet Beasley or a birth certificate for James or his eldest son Aubrey), or about the Perrin's in the Henley Union Workhouse I would be very grateful for the information, i have hit a real blank with this branch.

Thanks

Thanks very much, but i've found those records. Its the census's for 1871 1861 or 1851 I need definate confirmation of. Did you find anything on those?

[suzard]

I just thought it may help if anyone doing look ups knew the variation in age. You had stated 1881 census gave y.o.b.as 1848 -where it gives it at 1850?

How do you know Harriet's maiden name was Beesley?

I cannot find a marriage registration -or a birth registration for Aubrey J ??

I was wondering if maybe james perrin changed his surname??

I don't suppose he is Oliver J is he?  There is a birth Henley (right district) Oliver John Sep 1872.

[Milliepede]

Nope don't think he is Oliver disregard that.

There is an Aubrey John Perrin marries Alice Eliza Jane Ticehurst in Chichester district 1898.  His birth is Wallingford Oxon 1872. 

Just noticed their first two children were born in India.  Interesting.

I confirmed Harriets name on their youngest son's birth cert. James birth year changes on alll the census's so its hard to tell. Ideally I would like to find a parish record but the workhouse element might make that difficult to find.

Aubrey is James's eldest son, i have his marriage and children (inc the ones born in India but no birth record.

Oliver isnt the same person as he appears on census's where i have James.

Thanks for checking. Its unfortunate that the same records keep coming up but nothing new can be found.

[Milliepede]

Know what you mean about the same records coming up.

Records for the workhouse are held at Oxfordshire Record Office St Luke's Church Temple Road Cowley Oxford OX4 2EX.  They include guardians minutes 1835-1928 but whether any mention of Perrin one can't say.

How do you know it is James Perrin by the way as the census I looked at only had initial J 
Or are you assuming that it is because he isn't anywhere else!

[Milliepede]

Can't see Harriet in 1871 either wonder where she was at?

By the last census calculations they should have been married by then.
