Deborah, do you have Thomas's marriage cert? You really need to get certs (or find images of them on line) otherwise it is very easy to follow the wrong line, even with an unusual name. Have you got documentary evidence to get back to Thomas?

How did you get back to Thomas if you did not find his parents in the censuses, particularly as there is another Thomas also born in the same place and year?
