Are you descended from one of his children?  If so - give us the details of that child so we can work from that info

Have you had a look at the free 1911 index?  There are 2 possibilities living in Andover - both called Thomas Alexander Banks.  One b 1859 and the other born 1900

Was your Thomas actually born in Andover - or did he just live there?

I'm puzzled - you presumably have some connection and haven't just plucked the name and location out of thin air?

So - where did you get that info from and what is your interest?

We are happy to help you in any way we can but without more info we would not know which Thomas Banks was your interest

Hi carrbridge,

Are you able to give a rough date for this (possible first name) Thomas Banks?  I'm not sure that anyone could give you any meaningful information based on just the surname and location  :-\ and RootsChatters hate to fail  ;)

Are you able to say what sort of information you are seeking?  I can't think who said it before, but I'm sure someone did - help us so we can help you.   :)

Nell

There are some Banks in a book entitled "Andover's Mystery Murder: who Killed Thomas Parsons in 1858?"

Will look in Andover library and find out which Banks, as I read the book some time ago.

Regards,

Grandma

The book I mentioned is by David J.Borrett, written in 2005, ISBN 0 903755 21 1  There's a Banks family in it, Thomas Alexander, born Andover in 1823, named after his father Thomas and his grandfather Alexander, Emma Banks daughter of Thomas Alexander, and Emma, wife of Thomas Alexander, and Elizabeth, unmarried sister of Thomas, and Elizabeth Snr mother of Thomas Alexander.

Thomas is a suspect for the murder, but in the conclusion of the book "Thomas Banks' part was never more than a minor one"  It's a fascinating book.

I hope this all makes sense!
