Looking for the parents and origins of James London, born 4 Jan 1891, ostensibly in London.

Can find a James London (b 1891) living with his brother Henry (b 1880, married to an Alice ??????) and sister Frances (b1894) in the 1911 census at 9 Melton Street, St Pancras.

Cannot find any of them in previous censuses.

Notice in the census that it states Henry was born in London, St Luke. However in the column after that it says British Subject (strange!!)

Does this mean he was actually born outside of the UK and aquired British citizenship somehow ?

Can anyone shed some light on where they might have originated ?
