Thanks everyone, yeah Maddies’ last message seems to put the whole George of Southam into question doesn’t it?

Researching:
Bailey (Preston Capes, Long Lawford, Coventry), Haycock (Coventry), Spencer (Coventry, going back to Kingsbury, Warwickshire and possibly up to Nottinghamshire or over to Kent), Talboys (Coventry, Aston, Stroud, Gloucestershire) Cox (Coventry, Wolvey, Oxford) Hewitt (Coventry and onwards - family bush) Cakebread (Bloxham, Oxfordshire) Townsend (Rugby, Warwickshire and Northamptonshire), Round (Birmingham and the Black Country), Nurse (Coventry and Staffordshire), Lyndon (Midlands), O'Reilly, Phillips, (both Wexford, Ireland) Lawlor (Dublin, Ireland).

Thanks for all of this. However, George Spencer born in Southam, Warwickshire in 1797, is detailed to have married Sarah Graves with the marriage place in Southam on 11 March 1824. Thomas Spencer, George's Son is baptised in Coventry on 5 January 1824 and his Mother is detailed as Ann. We know Thomas goes on to have children in Coventry hinting at the family settling there (unless Thomas cooincidentally comes back to Coventry later after growing up in Southam, notwithstanding his Coventry baptism) but George dies in Southam in Quarter 1 of 1871 - visible on page 2 of the BMD Index Entry (on Ancestry).

So, short version, folks, i'm totally confused! Thanks all the same though. What can we summise here?
