The Thomas who died in 1894 was a cartman

I can only find a brief account in the Middlesbrough Gazette of November 1894. No details whatsoever about the victim.

Wasn't the father of the Thomas we're looking for called John, the one who died in 1894 was the son of Thomas

Think the father's name was John according to 1894 marriage certificate.

Yes.

Thanks Annette7. In truth all I do have evidence of is his marriage certificate, a real one. He was married to Margaret Mc Coy in April 1894 at Lanchester Co Durham. Father John listed as a labourer.

So the Thomas Kavanagh born Gateshead 1866 to Thomas Kavanagh and Catherine Ginty cannot be the one we are looking for.

Still need to find out who the Thomas Kavanagh was who died in 1894 - was he Thomas and Catherine's son or 'our' Thomas?

The newspaper reports state that Thomas was killed during a quarrel.
His residence was 20 Mulgrave Street.
There is no clue in any of the articles that I can see as to his family connections.

I thought I recalled him being killed at work but obviously not. Not my TK given CBK's birth. PHEW.
