Which Thomas Stocks have you PROVED to be your direct line?

I’m finding it difficult to follow your post - sorry. The dates don’t seem to tally, especially with regard to Ann’s father, whose birth year you seem to say was 1877

you seem to have two different men named Stocks dying in the same year with the same executors. No doubt I’m missing the point somehow

Perhaps it would be easier if you C&P’d the censuses to which you make reference

the ONLY Stocks record for Otley that I could find on freereg - but worth keeping an eye on the site, as they’re adding info regularly
