John WILLIAMS St.Lukes

[forest]

Still hoping someone else may be following the line of John WILLIAMS b circa 1791/2 in the St.Lukes/St.Leonards area.   I believe John married Sarah HORNE in 1811 in St.Leonards as one of their sons was named William Horne Williams.  In 1829 they were living in Tenter Row, St.Leonards as shown on several of their childrens' baptism entries and John was shown as a Watch Finisher.
I'd love to know whether anyone has been able to go further back and to share info.

Thanks, Forest

I'm not sure if you have this census

I am hoping to find the baptism of John WILLIAMS in either St.Lukes, Islington or St.Leonard, Hackney.

Censuses in 1841, 1851 and 1861 give his age as 50, 61 and 70, so I assume he was born 1790/2.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
