Oh, dear - not a lot of help, I'm afraid.
The only reference I can find so far is this:
Living 55 Nelson Street, Oxford St Thomas
Ann Breakspeare born c. 1842 Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, England Unmarried, Housekeeper Oxford St Thomas
James Breakspeare born c. 1868 Hardwick, Oxfordshire, England Son, Oxford St Thomas
John French born c.a 1834 Heyford, Oxfordshire, England Head, Carpenter Oxford St Thomas
Ann's relationship to John French is given as Housekeeper
and John Breakspeare's relationship to him is given as unknown.
Although Ann's birth year is given s 1842 it is very difficult to read on image - she may be younger.
I can't find them in 1871

If you send for the marriage cert it should give his father's name (or not if he was illegitimate). And, he probably called himself by his middle name -lots did.

Lisa, I can't answer your question but we may be of use to each other in the future. I'm researching the tree of a friend who has cousins called Breakspeare. We don't know the connection yet, she's waiting for information from her brother, but it's likely that a Breakspeare married a Scott early in the 20th century. If you recognise that, PM me.

I think you should send for marriage cert to verify his occup and father's name and possibly his name.

There is also a James Breakspeare on the 1901 census aged 40 married to a different person. Now, it can only be this chap if the 1st wife died and he re-married within 2 years. Perfectly feasible especially if all these ages are being recorded incorrectly.
That's why it is important to send for his marriage cert with Selina - it should have a wealth of inform and should state if he was a batchelor or widower. If it is the soldier boy it may say this on the cert.(I can't see this soldier boy on 1901) but he may be the same person as the chap on 1871 and 1891.
Witnesses on certs can be important as well.It is also the only piece of concrete evidence that you have. This is not an easy search and I think everything hinges on sending for it. What do you think??  If he has a named father we need to search again. Until then it is only guesswork.

Send for it under Selina's name in case there is a problem with his first name.
It may be quicker at the moment to apply direct to Oxford enclosing a self addressed stamped envelope, a cheque for £7 payable to Superintendant Registrar and the marriage request.
Or you could give them a ring first to check they are willing to provide it. They don't need the reference numbers - this is just for the GRO Office in Southport.(which is unindated with requests at the moment.

You can order it on line at www.1837online.com but as I said it will get a couple of weeks or longer as they are so busy.
It's up to you

Don't think they let you view certificates - you have to purchase for £7 - no cheap way round this, I'm afraid.
You can only get his name from birth/marriage cert.
