A bit of help needed on this one. Can't find on IGI.
James Procktor Harding was born 1811 St Pancras, Middx (from census and BMD death index etc.)
From Ancestry London Marriages (27.11.1847 St James, Clerkenwell, Islington) know his father was also James Procktor Harding, a carpenter. Not described as deceased. So looking for 1841 census, possibly St Pancras area. No James P Hardings but many James. This one might be a possibility - can you read the occupation of James Harding:
Unfortunately Ancestry London Baps start from 1813 and James P Harding b1811 doesn't appear.
As he named his own eldest son by the same name, reckon that Procktor middle name must be important - perhaps his paternal grandmother's maiden name?
Many thanks...
