I understand I may have to go to parish records, but the information i have on him, is that he came from St Olives in London, which does not seem to exist any more.

Abolished : 1.1.1902 (succeeded by St. Olave Bermondsey district). To find out where the parish registers are held, just google 'St Olave parish registers'.
