Help needed with Thomas Dent b circa 1793
« on: Thursday 29 October 20 12:53 GMT (UK) »
I'm trying to find ant details about the above person, my 4 x great-grandfather.

I have him in the 1851 census as 58 years old, living in Staunton Harold. He lists his birth place as Througham.

Pretty sure he married Elizabeth Wardle in 1814 in Breedon on the Hill.

I've not managed to work out his parents so any baptism records would be good.

Thanks in advance,
Richard.

Have you already discounted the 1790 birth & baptism on Family Search?

Could it be "Thringstone" in Leicestershire?

A tree on Ancestry has his birthplace as Thringstone and a marriage to Elizabeth Wardle

Thanks everyone.

Thringstone looks better. Lots of trees on Ancestry with that but no one seems to list his parents...

Also some disagreement about his death. Either Jul 1862 in Ashby de la Zouch or 31/08/1857 in Wednesbury, Staffordshire.
