Not sure where son James is but could this be them in 1891

James Chandler 36 married boarder with John Thompson and family
Occupation General Dealer born Southwark
Ann Chandler 32 born Bermondsey 

Not Amelia, did she always go by Amelia 
 

[amondg]

There is also a death recorded Southwark 1901 for James Chandler aged 47  could this be him?

Added

There is also another James Chandler 1901 registered Southwark but he is 55

[amondg]

Amelia Chandler death registered Bermondsey 1938 age 82 ?

What happened to the family after 1881 as I see that census is partly illegible

Is there an Elizabeth Chandler, 60, Hawker, further up the page in 1881? Also in Foxes Court. With the Peters, continued from previous page.

There is this baptism at St Mary Newington, 20 May 1857
Born 4 May 1857
James
Son of William + Elizabeth Chandler
Abode Kent St
Father a Hawker

Though that one would only be 16 on marriage in 1873 if he was born May 1857!

Hi Amondg

The deaths would be right and the description of his job would be right, but his son was born in Pancras R D and also married there in 1909.

Kind Regards

David
