Thomas Halĺ born Hexham
« on: Saturday 20 July 19 23:24 BST (UK) »
Could someone please find me any info on Thomas Hall born 1796 in Hexham and any parents.  He appears in London as a linen draper in 1841, a silk mercer in 1851 & 61 and an insurance agent in 1871. He died 15.08.1873.
Possibly he had a brother William who was born around the same time.  William was a postmaster in London.  William's son William (born 1814) and his wife recorded Thomas's address on their marriage certificate, 103 Bishopsgate Road, London

This one would "fit". https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NRVL-VLJ

You can search the same dataset for William (you didn't state how old the postmaster was) , to see if a father of the same name crops up.

Thanks Pauline.
I don't know his age. I only know his son William was born 1814.
It's possible that William the father of Thomas is also the father of William (1814) but equally Thomas may have a brother William.  I am unsure how I can prove either.
