Have been seeing if I can spot anything further on Thomas in America. Unfortunately I don't see him in 1900.

I do find a possible Immigration

Thomas Wellington aged 27 a miner (English) arrived NY from Bristol 3 Jul 1875 aboard the SS Somerset

Hi Jack and Kriss
Ok, let me explain my thoughts here.   I feel that the Thomas Wellington in Northumberland is the son of Chalres and Alice.  Half of Cramlington was made up of Cornish and Devonian miners from 1864.  Charles and Alice are in the North at this point.
Yes Kriss I agree that Thomas entry has Truro, Cornwall and Ladsley, he was actually born in the hamlet of Latchley in calstock -  so it is possible that ladsely is latchley??   The Cornish accent that was heard was often written very differently than what was heard.
From the Welsh census returns he has a son called Charles, possibly named after the father?
Thomas's sisters Melinda and Elizabeth both marry and are living in Glamorgan, Melinda to Samuel White and Elizabeth to Griffiths.   Their mother Alice Wellington dies in Cardiff.
I will order the marriage cert today of the Thomas Wellington who married Jane in Wales and see who is mentioned as the father.   
Not saying that any of us are correct and am open to any help at all too find the correct Thomas.
comments on the 'theory' welcomed.
Phil

Hi Phil,

We will wait on Jack to return but yes your theory does sound good with Charles and Alice's family ending up in Wales. I do like your Latchley also - the accent was where I was heading with Lanlivery but I really do like your Latchley :D

The certificate is the way to go for sure, but on reading your latest post your theory sounds really good and Jack may have to look again for the Thomas in USA

Good Luck..............Cheers Kris  :D

Hi Kris (and Jack)
Well have just trawled the BMD registers and can't find a marriage for Thomas Wellington 1873-1876?   But have found the birth of a Charles Wellington in 1875 in Pontypridd.   Jack do you have records of this family on your database ?  If you do can you ellaborate on them , if not I will buy the certificate.
Ta
Phil
