Thomas a shopkeeper, address Clerks Bank??
All born Leek, children Scholars.

I had looked on the 1841 but couldn't see him, nb the image has 2 distinctly different characters of the "ss" looks more like shallcrofs, but guess that could be a mishearing by the enumerator?!

Oh and Mary is definitely 38 not 58 on the image!

Thanks Janice and Pamela,

That's the right family. I have found a lot of instances of the enumerator writing the S as F - strange .

bye Helen
