Hambledon , Bucks.?

[doverrog]

Hello,
I have a George H.White who in the 1881 census is living at Granvill Terrace, No 5 Eardley Road, Streatham (Reg Dist. Wandsworth).
The census transcription gives his birthplace as Hambledon, Buckinghamshire in about 1854.
However I cannot find Hambledon. The nearest name i can find is Hughenden, Wycombe.
For some reason the Ancestry system won't show the original census entry so I can't check the original.
Can anyone else view the original entry please? or Does anyone know of a Hambledon in Bucks?
Thanks in advance.

There's a Hambleden in Buckinghamshire but also a Hambledon in Hampshire and Surrey.

I had a look at www.freebmd.org.uk and found this:

Births

George White   Mar 1853   Henley 3a   483

According to their notes Hambleden was an area covered by Henley.

Could this be him?

George gives Oxford Oxfordshire on the 1891 census and Oxford on the 1901 census.
The best known Hambledon is in Hampshire.

Since George obviously isn't consistent on where he was born you really do need his marriage details for his father's information.
What does the H. in George's name stand for? Have you traced his marriage certificate and details. A George White marries in Wandsworth registration district at about the right time. One of the possible spouses is a Sarah Frances Stanley. If this is the right marriage what information does George give about his father?

Marriages Mar 1875  
STANLEY  Frances Sarah     Wandsworth  1d 731  
STANLEY  Sarah Frances     Wandsworth  1d 731  
White  George     Wandsworth  1d 731

On the 1891 census Sarah is Sarah F and on the 1901 census she is Francis. Next door to the family is Thomas G Stanley with his granddaughter Emily White aged 24 born Streatham.

Many, many thanks everyone.
That's been a real help.
It's amazing how fresh eyes can find things.
So it looks as though Charlotte White may have married her cousin Samuel. I will carry on checking.
Thanks again.

There is no Hambledon in Bucks - try looking for the place given in the census returns - Hambleden.
