I am going to order the death certicate for James Harris in 1889, I can only see one James Harris on the 1881 census in Bishops Sutton, and his age doest match, so here is hoping.

I ordered the death certificate. James Harris died on the 31st December 1888 in Winchester Hospital. His father is listed as Charles Harris, Farm Labourer of Ropley.

I think given the fact James is buried in Bishops Sutton grave yard, it is more than likely Frederick James Harris. The death certificate was just in the name of James Harris, and not Frederick James. 

There was a death of a Frederick Harris on the IOW in 1906 age 30, but he is buried on the IOW.

When Charles Harris died in 1877 it was in Ropley, and he listed as a Farm Labourer.

Any thoughts please.

Sounds like you found him to me.  :D

Father's name, occupation and location all consistent.
