Have you checked on Ancestry as there appears to be a few possibilities in the County?

None on freereg or family search but Ancestry have the monopoly in Gloucestershire.

Thankyou, I have looked at everything I can think of, but a suggestion has been made to look for wills, haven't tried that, but will now.

Thankyou for the information about Henry. I have looked at everything , but so far I can't say if he is the correct one. The dates don't quite fit to show if he is correct or not, so I have him in my file until I can rule him in or out. Had a similar experience with his Grandson James, but now have proven him correct, so thanks very much
