Re: Thomas Smith of Northamptonshire, England - 1841 census

In reply to:
Thomas Smith of Northamptonshire, England - his son Joseph
sharon lamb 10/08/13
got some help off of rootschat
and possibly from something you either said recently or at another time, that I forgot about or whatever.
first off I checked and it appears that the 1841 census with Thomas Smith living with Mary Smith, and several possibly siblings.is NOT the correct Thomas Smith.
there is a web site for Hanslope, Buckinghamshire, England
http://www.rootschat.com/links/0f8l/http://www.rootschat.com/links/0f8l/
after looking through the site I came to the conclusion that the Mary Smith that has Thomas Smith with her in 1841 in Hanslope....
the father of that family is WILLIAM SMITH...who married Mary Mills.
I looked through and searched and could only find one posting for a Thomas Smith born about 1819 and it was for the 1851 Census with him living in Lillingstone, Dayrell, Buckinghamshire, which we have already agreed is the CORRECT Thomas Smith.
but I got another reply on rootschat...and they found a Thomas Smith living with a Mary Smith in 1841 in Winslow, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE,
if you look at the original page, you will find that Thomas ....who is supposedly born in 1812.....age 19 ...is on one page whereas Mary Smith, who presumablyhis mother...is on the previous page. age 65
but IF you look further up the page, the 10 previous persons on that page are all Smiths.
So possibly connected to her, but not sure HOW I would prove it or IF I need to.
just more of an observation........
so NOW if this IS the correct Thomas Smith, how do I go about proving that?
I didn't find any marriage for Thomas Smith on the page for Hanslope....so I wasn't able to narrow it down that way either.
maybe I need to go back and see IF there is a death for a Thomas Smith, prior to 1841 census....
I don't think I did that.
So what do YOU think?
