On the 1851 census for England, Thomas is 18. He is a lodger. It says he was born in Cockernhoe. He is lodging with John and Martha Moseley, aged 48 and 58 respectively and also a George Wilson, aged 22.

They have several children:

I was just browsing and came across this thread.
Stella hasn't been on rootschat for almost a year, and it seems like she was having trouble finding her way around the forum.
Why not send her a personal message in case she can't find her way back to this thread? Just click on her name to do this.
Good luck! :)
