is this the only thomas sawyer that you can find in that time frame? the only reference i have for his dob is that on the 1841 census in which he gives 1801, but then again who ever really knew their birth year then?!

thank you very much for you help x

just found a 1841 census for a william sawyer and ann. her birth is down as 1781, so that marriage might be a little to early but again the dob on a census is a little 'out' sometimes

Hi.

As you may well know, ages in the 1841 Census were generally rounded up or down, so it is a good possibility it could be right.

Ages throughout the various Census are also a bit hit and miss.

But at least you have a start.

I am a descendant of Thomas Sawyer and Elizabeth William's eldest son, Richard who married Elizabeth Judd.

Richard's eldest son, Albert Thomas Sawyer immigrated to Canada in 1871, my direct ancestor.

I would like to take this lineage back further and also find missing siblings to Thomas (B:1796 or 1801) and fill in some gaps for Richard's family.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
