Samuel son of Thomas & Ann of Webbs Square born April 27th 1792 baptised 22 Oct at St Leonards Shoreditch.

Samuel's sons started off carrying on the family trade but after the Napoleonic Wars England was flooded with French Silk and the bottom fell out of the market and so they diversified into furniture makers, leather makers and harness makers. 

Quite happy to change occupations to earn a living then  :)
