Glenys,
Unfortunately I know nothing about Thomas beyond the fact that the 1841 census gives his approximate year of birth as 1801. He was living in Lydiate in 1841. There is a possible entry for him on the 1851 census in Lydiate which gives an approximate birth year as 1795 in Sefton.
I think that Thomas may have been Catholic which would explain why I have been unable to find a baptism online for their two know children (Margery c1821 & Alice c1834).
Family lore is that we are descended from the Weld-Blundell family but I don not know how true this is.
