Just in case you are not in that area Zoe, Medway is the area of kent, which includes Rochester |

Chances are Zoe that James was not born for 1871 census and that Henry died before 1881 so you won't find them together , I would send for that birth certificate, at least it will eliminate him if not...but may just confirm his father's name . |
