Gaius Forster married in Oxfordshire. I think he is in the 1841 census HO107 Piece 888 book 7 folio 31 page 19 as Gaius Foster in Thames Oxfordshire age 15 with a James Foster age 20 a Miller, The ages have been rounded down to the nearest 5 as required for the 1841 census. Neither James or Gaius were born in the county.
Also in the 1881 as Gains Foster born Askett Buckinghamshire RG11 Piece 679 Folio 67 Page 34

He and his wife Rebecca with daughter Fannie are in the 1900 US census New Haven, Connecticut. Not that this helps with a baptismal record. he is a flour miller which fits with the occupation of James in the 1841 census.

Tree on Ancestry shows James Foster with same parents & born Princes Risborough

Possibly baptismal transcription should be 1825 (or late baptism)
