Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 10,667 Send Message	Couldn't resist - had a few SP credits spare Samuel John Lennox born 16 November 1872 ED... Street, Annan to John Lennox - can't read occupation (could be lath ---?? - as 1881 census) and Jane Lennox - Maiden surname Cummings Married January 12th 1868 Durham EDIT - could be Ednam Street, Annan - there is one showing on google and occupation Lath Splitter as per 1871 census is this early marriage date to cover birth of Robert Samuel

He is ditto born Darlington from John T Johnson above him and Jane born Kendal, Westmorland, so that looks to be a mistake

Member Since: August 2007 Posts: 8 Send Message	Thank you everyone. I love hunches! You have not only given me my Thomas but a whole new branch on the tree. You have also given me good suggestions for further hunting. Later I may ask for help on other mysteries. Thanks again Trudy

	Thanks my little greyghost friend - it looks like we both had the same little hunch - I was just far too hot to come back on here when I came back home but it looks like you were able to folllow it through successfully. All's well that ends well, as they say....... Thanks, Dea x P.S. to Trudy - yes, please do come back on here if you need help on any of your queries - we are always very happy to try to help and we get quite excited when there is something new to 'get our teeth into'. Best wishes, Dea x

Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 10,667 Send Message	Love a hunch that turns up trumps. And as Dea says, something to get you hunting and seeking answers. Best wishes Trudy for your future hunting and come back anytime. Sorry Dea you were too hot to get back to the boards - not!! (laughs here)
