I think that this is the same Thomas Ashworth just noticed that in 1911 he lived in the parish of Lambeth and  he got married at Lambeth Register Office in 1916

Hi Alan  I have a print out of the 1911 census and it does look that it could be our man but it raises a few more questions it states that he has been married for 6 3/4 years to Theadona May who is 28 and have a son Harry 6 Again well done Alan

Well Pels & Bumble B you have both been very busy I can confirm that on the marriage certificate he is down as 45 yrs of age and his father is Henry so I agree with you something is wrong as his age is given as 73 at his death in 1936 and yes the T is most likely to be his mother and like you the only Ashworths from that part of the country seem to have worked in the cotton industry I was just hoping that if all that was written was true then there must have been at least a death report of his father in a local paper. Many thanks again to you both for all your efforts.

I must admit that I came to the same conclusion that all might not be as written but I would have thought  what was written about his sporting achievements were true that there must have been something written about him in the local papers also if his father was a doctor there must have been something written about him my friends relation has the marriage certificate I must see if I can have a look at it. Many thanks again for your interest and yes those 50 years are a mystery.

Many thanks Pels for all your efforts I was just hoping with all the references to Yorkshire somebody might have found newspaper stories of his younger years to give me a clue of where he came from.

Just noticed Pels that you do have the right information for the marriage and birth certificates for the 2 boys, Florence also had Ursula in 1914 who was later adopted by Thomas.

Thanks Bumble B and Pets for all your help I got most of the information from his tribute in the local Torquay paper which also included the fact that he was a successful sportsman while in Yorkshire playing right wing tree quarter back for the County held the a English amateur half mile record and swam for Yorkshire I do have proof of his marriage to Florence Jane  Browatt and the birth certificates of both children Florence also had Ursula in 1914 before their marriage she was later adopted.But I can not find the family before 1916. The newspaper also said he was the son of Dr and Mrs T Ashworth
