Yes - you've got it.  The £200 was forfeit if they didn't marry.

Hmmm, supernatural powers would be really useful  ;D

The 1851 on Ancestry, Thomas is indexed as Thomas Oborn.  They're back in Lakenham, and James is still with them.  I couldn't find any of them in 1861.

I never thought of Oborn as a spelling.
I've found death records on Freereg for Thomas April 1856 and Elizabeth December 1857 , both in Lakenham.
James is on the 1861 as follows:

1861 Census
   
Piece: RG9/1194 Place: Yarmouth Northern -Norfolk Enumeration District: 18
Civil Parish: Great Yarmouth Ecclesiastical Parish: St Nicholas
Folio: 37 Page: 24 Schedule: 200
Address: 15 Row 58

        Surname       First name(s)       Rel       Status       Sex       Age       Occupation       Where Born       Remarks   
        PESTELL       Charles       Head       M       M       26       Boatbuilder        Norfolk - Great Yarmouth           
        PESTELL       Maria       Wife       M       F       23               Norfolk - Great Yarmouth           
        ORSBONE       James       Visitr       U       M       56       Oaster        Norfolk - Ingham

Ingham and Keswick are linked parishes. If you read the origina lyou can see he's back to being a carter not an oaster!
There is a freeBMD death for James Osborne in Norwich in 1865. No age given until 1867 sadly.
I can't find him in 1871 so it may well be him. Jan

No sorry -it's Intwood that's near Keswick not Ingham so I'm probably wrong about James. Shame- I thought I was doing so well too but there was probably another single carter of similar age also called James Osborne, how thoughtless is that!
