I am tearing my hair out as regards a Thompson Longfellow b. 1840 in Horsforth
1841 census - Workhouse Hill, Troy, Horsforth
F - William Longfellow
M Ann Longfellow
He is shown as Benjamin Longfellow 1 - he was baptised Benjamin Thompson Longfellow on 24 Mar 1839 born Horsforth
His brother Thomas Longfellow is 3 - he was baptised Thompson Burton Longfellow on 26 Apr 1840
1851 census - Troy, Horsforth
F William
M Ann
Benjamin T Longfellow 11 born Horsforth
Thompson Burton Longfellow 13
1861 census - Long Row, Horsforth
F William
M Ann
Benjamin T Longfellow 21 - cloth fuller born Horsforth
He has a brother William who is 15
Thompson Burton Longfellow is not there
A Thompson Longfellow died 1862 Q2 Wharfedale vol 9a page 109 aged 24 - believe this to be Thompson Burton Longfellow
5 April 1862 Thompson Longfellow 22 Fuller of Horsforth married Martha Sutcliffe. His father - William Longfellow - Clothier
1871 census onwards - Benjamin Thompson Longfellow just uses Thompson Longfellow
He dies 1923 Q2 Wharfedale 9a 161
HERE ARE THE QUERIES!
1851 census again - Troy, Horsforth
F John Longfellow 44 - woollen cloth weaver
M - Sarah 34
William 26
John 16
Thompson 12 born Horsforth
all the boys shown as sons
Can find no birth record for a third Thompson Longfellow ?? Or how/if John Longfellow links to my family
1861 census 18 Corporation St, Horsforth
William Longfellow Head 31 cloth fuller
Martha - wife 31
Thompson Longfellow 22 born Horsforth woollen cloth weaver - shown as Bros (Brother?) - suspect this is Thompson Burton Longfellow who was not home with the family on census night BUT - a brother, William born 1830 ? Can't find one on any record?
Am I getting my Thompsons muddled up? have been looking at this for weeks now and getting bogged down.
Could anyone perhaps spot something obvious which I am missing?
