Hi thanks for the help the Stanier Bourne you mention is the son of Thomas and Alice Bourne living at nettlebank on the 1881 census.  I feel that he could be a grandson of the Stanier Bourne I am seeking as. He is mentioned in the following which suggests he is in old age

 On 8th April 1863, a recitation was given at an Annual Tea Meeting in the National School, Smallthorne, by Thomas Tomkinson. The title of the recitation was Village changes
