Thanks for your response to my search for a connection between my 2 x great grandfather Owen Tomlinson (not 1 x great, as I wrote) and George Tomlinson (1846 - 1918). Owen's wife, Caroline, (1826 - 1887) was the 8th child of Charles Henry Baseley (1791 - 1874) and Ann Wade (1797 - 1863). He changed his surname officially to hers in 1821. I have Caroline's birthplace as Hampshire in 1826 not 1824. Am I wrong about this date? I have never come across anyone called Golden Wade! I have traced the Wades back via Field Marshal George Wade (1673 - 1748) to Sir William Waad, Lieutenant of the Tower of London (1546 - 1623) and beyond, but need an experienced researcher to check my homework!
