According to the Wesleyan Baptismal Register, a Thomas NOSWORTHY and his wife, Mary, baptised a son, James, at Belleville, Ontario on 22 December 1846. I have followed James until his death but I cannot find any further evidence of his parents, Thomas and Mary. As the 1851 census is not reliable in terms of coverage available for viewing, they certainly have not been found there. But not in any further census forward. No record of death for either. If not in the 1881 census, I suppose one can only assume both died before that time. IF Thomas is the person I believe he is, he would have been born around 1820. Any help most appreciated. Nikkei
