Not necessarily. You really do need to get his marriage certificate or find him on a census to make sure that these are the correct parents - there was another William Eastman baptised at the same place a year earlier so you need to be absolutely sure.

You could try the IGI to see if James Eastman and Ann had anymore children, then you could look for a marriage between them.

It is possible that they were still alive in 1841 or 1851 so try and find them on a census to see when where they were born.

If you get his marriage certificate, it will give you his fathers name and confirm whether the above is likely to be correct.
