There's James Banfield married to Ann who says he was born Woodmancote around that time
Marriage seems to be to Ann Hills, 27 Oct 1839, Woodmancote
Some details here, father named as James

Thank you to you both, that has really opened up my research on the Banfield's, possibly raised a few more questions, I'll look through and evaluate.

Thanks again
