All from this site,

On the assumption that this is Warren JAMES’s parentage,

We might therefore be looking for a brother named Jeptha born reasonably close to this,

Since Bream was a Chapelry of Newland baptisms could be recorded in both places. Interestingly enough the latter record appears at Bream under the name Japeath,

Later note.Does the mentioned book imply that Japeath/Jeptha was alive at the time of the riots? If so this post may be a red herring.

Warren’s sister may be worth following up as evidenced by this newspaper comment during a report of the riots and his part in them,

BNA Cheltenham Journal and Gloucestershire Fashionable Weekly Gazette. - Monday 27 June 1831

The Foresters quoted the Duke of Beaufort and the Lord Chancellor, as authorising their conduct! His Grace is stated to have recommended them to petition, and merely promised to support their prayer. Warren James's sister lives as servant to the Lord Chancellor, whom he pretends to have consulted. The soldiers found out his signals, three claps of the hand, which brought him up from the mine, and placed him safe in their clutches. Like all English and Irish mobs, the Forest Rioters are great cowards.
