Thank you Sinann, I shall endeavour to contact the church with fingers crossed.

Finding the maiden name of Jane James, born c.1882, Shropshire, is the key.

Heywood,  Jane (born 1902) married Samuel Evans in Mullingar, Westmeath, Sept.19th. 1928 (father Edward - no fixed abode). I have not found any other reference to John James, apart from that 1921 census.
The family do not appear in the 1939 Register, so I assume they are still in Ireland.

Sinann,  the church record could be a chance. Obviously, there is no indication on the marriage certificate. I will try to find the Church of Bray register for 1933.
Many thanks to everyone again for your help.

Hello everybody, no, they have not registered any children born in England or Wales, as far as I know. Remember, they are Travelling Hawkers and have children baptised when and where they are able. Not necessarily in the place they were born. This has continued up to the present day.
Sinann, it would seem that they moved to Cork from around 1910 to 1917, after Harriet's baptism in Tipperary.
One son, Samuel, b.1906, married in Holyhead in 1933, and a few months later married the same woman, Mary Bernes, in Bray! You can see what I'm up against.

Thanks for all the replies.

Heywood,  I saw the 1921 census entry and I've tried the Irishgeneology website, no luck. The 1915 birth is Edward.
Carole,  I don't think Jane is the Medlicott marriage; as you say, there are no children listed. There is another marriage in 1901, in Cardigan, to a Jane Evans. It is a possibility, as the first two children were born there.
Sinann,  That is great. At least one of the offspring found. Could I ask you, do you think the residence of Whitechurch is the one in Co. Cork, or could it be Whitchurch in Shropshire?

Thanks to all once again.

Edward and Jane James had children,

Samuel, 1906 born Louth.
Harriet, 1909 born Tipperary.
Elias, 1910 born Cork.
Edward, 1915 born Cork.
Ishmael, 1917 born Cork.
Arthur, 1918 born Limerick.
Any info. on any of these births would be most welcome. All travelled back and forth from Holyhead, Wales. Cannot find on 1911 census in Ireland or England/Wales.

Westmeath / Re: Cauldry Westmeath. Where is it?

Thanks again Heywood. Those three baptisms you found of Edward Doorley's children are the siblings of the Michael Doorley that I am researching. He was born c.1847 but I have not yet found his baptism. There are gaps in some Westmeath registers, or at least some transcriptions, so perhaps he may not appear.
The three baptisms you did find were all new to me. Cheers.

Heywood, yes, I've had a Facebook reply from several people to tell me that Caulry is/was in the parish of Ballyloughloe, Mount Temple. Great work. Can't thank you enough.
Now to try and find the baptism of Edward Dourley/Doorley.

Thanks Heywood for the suggestion. I think I may have made a breakthrough.
 On the road between Baylin and Aghanasmore, just a few miles from Athlone, is Caulry Gaelic Football Club. It is in the townlands of Ardyduffy and Clonrelick, before the road reaches the L1437. The gaelic name is Calraigh. I will have to ask at Athlone library for more info.
Thoughts anyone?
