Sarah, his widow, moved to Alton and died in the Alton Union Workhouse in 1843, aged 92.

Dear Jane
Thank you so much for the information. I knew of Hannah as mother of James from the 1861 census. and thought the father could be Thomas. This is a big bunus. Your help is very much appreciated,
Many Thanks Jean
