John Holbrook, childs name

[bushy]

Could someone please have a look at 1851 census for
HOLBROOK, Jno 1816 35 M St Martin in the Fields Middlesex
HO107 piece 1481 folio 271 page 8

He is with his wife Sarah
But I can't work out what the childs name is (Jane Gg James 1845 )

Hi

Mmmm difficult, - the child is put as a male. What is even more confusing is that in 1861 the child aged 16 is called John..

Me again
Dad was born in Shrewsbury in 1851 census,
could young James have been born there too?
There's a listing in Free BMD 1845.
There again I don't think so??
As for Jane listed as son, the enumerator must have been stressed, then went home and made corrections.....
