What information are you looking for? Do you have him in the 1841 census? Have you looked in the parish registers for his baptism yet?

[DoreenH]

yes have tried. Even contacted Somerset family history society for help. plus two other newly found families searching for Thomas Blackmore also with the same problem. Not knowing his parents names to find the right one. will try again in the 1841 census.
trying to find his parents so that I can go back further. But also to know about him and where he worked and lived as a miller and baker.
