If he hadn't died so young, we'd have a date of birth to go on.

This is age at death:

RILEY, JAMES 49 Order
GRO Reference: 1843 M Quarter in PORTSEA ISLAND UNION Volume 07 Page 99

It agrees with burial details, and the fact that he was apprenticed in 1808, aged 14. Unfortunately, those records don't show his father.
