Mysterious Oulds

Looking for some sort of official document about the existence of a Samuel Thomas Oulds, said to be born in 1833 in Lambeth, London/Surrey. He is in the 1841 Census with his Father Samuel 35 1806
Mother Mary (b. abt 1811), plus sibs:
George Oulds 10 1831
Samuel Oulds 8 1833
Mary Oulds 5 1836
Thomas Oulds 5 Mo 1841
Ref: Reg Lambeth; Sub-reg Lambeth Church Second; Pce 1058; Bk 5; Folio 28;P 17

In other Censuses the surname is missspelt as Holes and Culds! Neither FreeReg nor FamilySearch has any plausible Oulds children born near London, only Cornwall. The Oulds family were still in Lambeth and Shoreditch 100 years later, so I don't think they somehow popped up to London from Cornwall.
Baby Thomas' Birth reg gives his mother as Lawrence, which is a top surname in my family:
GRO OULDS, THOMAS LAWRENCE
GRO Reference: 1841 M Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 04 Page 270.

Any Baptism or Birth for any of these other Oulds would be great. I have a sub with the A-site but no others.
 
FMP has the marriage:

24th December 1826 at St Mary, Newington (Southwark), Mary Ann LAWRENCE to Samuel OULDS

The marriage is also on Ancestry and gives FHL film numbers for it, so you might see a parish register. ;)

Wow! Thanks- I found the marriage once I got Mary Lawrence's surname from Thomas' Birth reg and extended my dates back from 1830. Now to see if the Parish register entries are there for Samuel Thomas Oulds- I had no luck before, just searching for Oulds children born around 1833 in London... fingers crossed.
 
Nope- still no luck with Samuel Thomas Oulds born about 1833, either Lambeth or Shoreditch, OPCs, transcripts, etc. Maybe he was missed and I should take the 1841 Census as the only evidence.
