There is a tree on A******y which gives this information:

Name: William Thomas Maffey
Birth: 14 Mar 1812 - Lockerley, Hampshire
Death: 1876 - Southampton, Hampshire
Parents: Thomas Maffey, Sarah Fielder

There are four other trees there with William's name.

If you click on the Search Trees tab on this site and enter William Maffey b 1812 Lockerley, there is a match.
