Notes:

An odd entry in the 1881 census has Thomas and Harriet in Finkle St, Thorne, but ages given as 31 and 29 instead of the expected 53 - clearly an error as daughters Ellen, 13, and Harriet (Edwards), 23 are with them.

Thomas married Harriet Alsop on 16 Apr 1849 in St Lawrence, Hatfield. Harriet (daughter of John Alsop and Hannah) was born in 1827 in Stainforth, Doncaster. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
