I have just had a look at Jerriedia (http://www.theislandwiki.org) - and I can't see either a Thomas Hardy baptism, or any baptisms to a George Hardy?

Hello, Thank you for your reply.
On the 1911 census it states he was born in Jersey,
Perhaps he was conceived there!!
The family have told me this is what Thomas always said.
cheers

I am wondering if he was illegitimate?
And therefore baptised under another surname?

Do you know his birthday?
