Not sure what's going on with father James EGGLETON's wives:

1) Marriage and Census  1851 & 1861: Margaret Atkinson nee FINNIMORE, she died 1869
2) 1871 ENG: Annie born Shropshire abt 1836, and it infers she has a Australian born son
3) 1881 SCT : Mary Ann born Middlesex abt 1836
4) 1891 ENG : Marion born Southwark Middlesex abt 1836

are the last 3 the same woman, I wonder or just the last 2- I can't find any marriage 

in 1891, James is back in England:

1891: Marylebone, London
Ref: RG12 /  P  94 /  F  61 / Pg 29
Address: 25 East St. Buildings
Head: James EGGLETON 66, Naturalist (Bird) *, b Chalfont, Bucks
Wife: Marion EGGLETON 55, b Southwark, London
Son: John R 18, Milkman, b Marylebone
Dau: Maryann 17, Milliner, b Scotland

* The "(bird)" bit is added afterwards in different hand - I think it is meant to clarify  he works with animals (as opposed to being a nudist ?   just kidding!) - in the same way, dau Maryann has "dress" added after her occupation.

DEATH: Jun Qtr 1891
James EGGLETON 66 -  Marylebone RD

WOW, Thank you so very very much,  90% of what you have replied to me is new.  I'm so very grateful as my mother is still alive and I can pass all this information on to her.

If you add together the various bits and pieces from the various census entries I think you can be fairly certain that James was born in Chalfont St Giles in Buckinghamshire.
