I think you do need to read the info again as those Ive given are in the Southwark or Westminster area. (I was pleased myself at the connection found)

As I say on my posting on the first page, it seems very likely that your chap moved from one place to the other. Some of the kids are shown baptised in southwark, others in the city.

I mentioned only that on ancestry the name is very common in Sussex which may be a future lead.

Here is all the info I gave in case you never saw it.

There does seem to be a crowd of Virgos over in Southwark area and I note that the son Thomas was born there - something to keep in mind.

Also a lot of Virgos down in Sussex, Brighton area.
