Thomas Smith Mason
« on: Sunday 24 January 21 06:49 GMT (UK) »
Good Morning.
Can anybody help me by locating Thomas Smith Mason christened in Ilmington, Warwickshire, March 1829, parents Giles and Mary?
(Not to be confused with his similarly named cousin, christened 1831, parents John and Jane Smith Mason)
I have him in 1841, age 12, with his family at Wharf Inn, Ilmington.
Can anyone locate him in 1851 and 1861? I cannot.
I have him next in November 1866 marrying Rhoda White from Wimpstone. They married in Birmingham. Rhoda would have been pregnant with Mary Elizabeth who was christened in Ilmington, where the family subsequently lived. His occupation was agricultural labourer.

Warncoort, I think I may have mislead you. It is not his christening record I am looking for, it is finding him in the 1851 and 1861 census I am having trouble with.
My apologies if that is the case.

I was interested to note that on the original image of the baptism record, the surname has been written as Smith Mason.  Find My Past have also transcribed it as Smith Mason.

I see that Giles is a blacksmith.

All his children from both his marriages to Susanna Spiers & Rhoda White have the surname Smith, so it looks as if he dropped the Mason surname as mentioned.
