Hi Kunifer  :)

What are you searching for exactly?

According to Liz's finds on this thread
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,362497.0.html
it doesn't look like Thomas really was from Yorkshire, does it? (The 1901 census gives his birth place as Lincolnshire Grantham by the way)

She made a mistake, mixing up Thomas' birth place with the one of the lady in the previous line. It does say Grantham.

Yes, probably! ;D

1891 and 1881 said Grantham anyway
