James was born before 1813. He is the son of Robert Thrower and Emma Sprunt.
As an adult it would appear that James consistantly knocked about 5 years off his age, possibly due to the young age of his bride Anna Maria Goodchild at their marriage in 1840 - at the following year's census she shows as a 15 year old.
