Hi, I am looking for info on gg grandfather Thomas Thompson. I think he was born in 1841 in Garforth, Yorkshire. Could you check the 1871 Census to see who were his parents and siblings are please?
On the 1881 Census it states that in 1901 he lived in Green Lane, Methley,York with his wife Fannie Hardcastle and children.

Hi,

I am now looking to elaborate on Walter James Piper's siblings... I am trying to confirm if one of his siblings was born in Middlesex... Joshua Henry Piper... Birth in Pimlico, Middlesex 1837, marriage in Exeter in 1863 (makes sense as family was living in area at the time, and my relation was born there in 1852) and died in Highworth in 1885. That's all I think at the moment (I don't know if it's connected, but seems like it).

Wonder where his other siblings went...

Joshua Henry Piper
John William Piper
Arthur E Piper
William W Piper

Thanks for all your help, it is greatly appreciated
