Yes I am very lucky to have quite an insight into the Thursfields. It helps with over 30 years of research to look at. I've put together numerous trees so will be interested to see what conclusions you come to.
Always nice to have a fresh pair of eyes looking at the entries

That is an amazing find Pat - if there was an apprenticeship from Hexham to Newcastle in 1720 then I could be looking for a much earlier connection.

I'm on the case and will report back (I'll also check out the app record next time I am across at the NA)

Thanks again

Hi Ashley if it is correct it would be brilliant, but as you say it needs checking. Not sure what the apprenticeship was for which is a shame. Had a look at Thomas family in Hexham but couldn't find anything to help.

There may be some useful information on the Thursfield family for you on this website http://www.thursfield-history.co.uk/ Dave.

Hi Dave
I don't know whether you would like to include my piece about the Thursfields on your website. Have pasted the start of it below.

 "Newchapel, a straggling village, from two to three miles N of Tunstall, gives name to a chapelry district (of Wolstanton parish), comprising Thursfield township, Chell, Wedgewood, and parts of Stadmoreslow, and Brerehurst townships. "
 
[From History, Gazetteer and Directory of Staffordshire, William White, Sheffield, 1851]
