Birth dilemma

[Mamspice]

Hi, I'm struggling to find a birth and wondered if someone might know what else I can try. I'm looking for a William James Moore, born 1868. I can only find him on 2 census', 1901 and 1911 when he is married. His birthplace on one is stated as Coyton (which obviously doesn't exist) the other one just says England! He died in 1911. He is down as James Moore on his marriage certificate, with just a line through the fathers section. Any ideas on how to find his birth date/place and his mums name?

[Milliepede]

Does Coyton have a County or is that the only word?  Who did he marry please?

[Milliepede]

I can see a census 1911 with Coyton Devon is that the one?

There is a Coryton Devon under Tavistock district and a James Moore birth in 1868.

Perhaps he added the William later on.

Can you find him as just James in earlier census?

There's Coryton in Devon? In Tavistock RD.

Yeah thats the one, married to Mary. I guess he could have gone by just James, I can see one but he's a servant so still no luck on the mum

It's possible

Or Colyton, Devon (just north of Seaton, east of Exeter)?

If James was born to married parents why would his father's name be blank on his marriage record?

Here's another possibility for 1891
Piece number 1758, Folio 93, Page 10

James Moore b abt 1868 Colliton Somerset, living in Devon. The Colyton near Seaton isn't too far from Somerset border and can't find a Colliton or close in Somerset.
