Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 7,446 Send Message	You would have done what you could to bring money home to your family. I wold imagine he probably went to work with his father and found a job that way. As Thomas grew older the ship yards as he knew them would have been starting to close, with a new wife and children he may have changed occupations to suit his needs. As local councils sprung up and jobs became abundant he would have probably switched occupations to carry on earning money. I'm still trying to find him in 1911..... Do you know when John or Mary Ann died? Tracey x
