1841 Stamford (St John Baptist) Lincolnshire
HO107/625/8 folio 14 pp20-21

'Toolgate'
Francis Eglesfield, 55, miller, N
Mary do., 50, Y
Thomas do., 25, maltster, N
Joseph do., 15, maltster, N
<Lettey?>, 15 <female>, N
Elizabeth, 4, Y

If this is the same Thomas, I imagine that Francis and Mary were uncle and aunt rather than parents.  And since John and Hannah appear to have had only 2 kids, Thomas may have been orphaned.  Pure guesswork on my part of course.

Also note that this Thomas is recorded as NOT born in Lincolnshire, so he may have been born in Rutland and christened at the 'family church' of St Johns.

Ignore all that - wrong age!!

Indexed this time as Eiglesfield and I think this could be their real name as there are a few of them in the village
