I havent got all the refs yet, but there is an Ann LENT married head in Doncaster in 1851 with children Emma & Rose, mother-in-law (sic) Mary Taylor widow aged 45.

Then there is a matching family in 1841 in Doncaster, the father is a hairdresser, but his name is Thomas!?! HO107/1340/5/10/13

I think I need to look again later!

It doesn't say Thomas on your cert, that's a cert!!

Hi Arranroots

The image you mentioned has the elder Thomas as a Flaxdresser not a hairdresser. So it does match the cert!

In my defence I claim a heavy cold which is rendering me stupid (hopefully just temporary!!)
