I have found that Thomas Holland was born abt 1756 but do not know where. I do know he married an Elizabeth and had 10 children in Anwick, Lincolnshire but they are the only Hollands that I can find born there. Did Thomas marry ELizabeth there?
There is nothing on the IGI that helps.
On Joseph Hollands entry in 1800 it states that parents were Thomas Holland and Elizabeth Jackson. But all the other siblings it just stated Thomas Holland and Elizabeth. Is it a clue or a hinderence???
Thomas was alive in 1841 and living with his youngest child Joseph in Manchester aged 85. I am presuming his wife is dead.
Youngest child of this couple was born 1787 in Anwick.
If anyone could come up with a marriage of these two I would be so grateful.
I can not trace any of the children of Thomas and Elizabeth except for Joseph who moved to Manchester and it looks like his brother James born 1797 Anwick was in Jail in Lincoln, Lincolnshire in 1851 stated as being married and a Beer house keeper.
These are the children of Thomas and Elizabeth if anyone can throw any light on them.
Mary b. 24 Mar 1787
Ann b. 29 Dec 1790
John b. 7 Mar 1792
Elizabeth b. 28 Aug 1794
James b. 25 Sep 1796
Sarah b. 13 Oct 1797
(All other children died as infants)
Thanks
All the best Angela.
