Can you give us a clue as to what kind of information you are looking for?  :-\  Sorry but your post is a little vague.

He is in the Workhouse with his mother Ann, aged 30 - Horse keeper's widow, born Shouldham, and his younger brother, John, aged 6 born Sheffield.

Having a real problem finding her in 1871 but found this one.
 Ann Smith. Her son James born the same place as James Death.
Piece:   4678
Folio:   145
Page Number:   25

Had a look for a birth for John Death Sheffield. Found John born 1874 MMN Tuffs. So go back and look for a birth for James Tuffs and there was one born 1868 Downham Union MMN Tuffs. Can not find a marriage for Ann Tuffs to a William Smith or William Death.  Good Luck :)

And Ann in 1871 is born in the same place as Ann Death in 1881  ;)

I'm intrigued by your knowing James' date of birth, it must have come from somewhere.

I assume you have seen James' Army Service records in which, in 1887, he gives his next of kin as mother = Ann and brother = John, both in Huntingdon.
