Evidently you've seen the 1881 Census data for Woodchester, Gloucester, which listed Maurice J. Chamberlain, age 20, b. Painswick, Gloucester, son of John & Sarah Chamberlain.But now that I've seen the actual data for myself (posted on the LDS/Mormon Family Search internet site), I see that the Census also lists John Chamberlain as age 47, b. Hinckley, Leicester.This means that he was born 1833-1834 there.I have found another LDS IGI listing online which matches this information exactly: John Chamberlain, chr. 22 Sep 1833, Saint Mary, Hinckley, Leicester, England, with a mother named Mary, but his father's name not listed.Obviously, parish records at Saint Mary, Hinckley, should reveal more about this Chamberlain family - the names of John's siblings, if any, and probably his father, and possibly earlier generations of Chamberlains there.Another IGI record lists the marriage of John Chamberlain to Sarah Hill Haines, 24 Apr 1860, Woodchester, Gloucester.Parish records in Painswick & Woodchester, Gloucester, where all of John's children were born, should also be examined, I would think.I hope this additional information is helpful to you.
