Thomas and Grace were running a pubcalled “The Plough” in Woodhorn in the1841 and 1851 census. Woodhorn is asmall quiet village and was probably anideal place for the family when thechildren were small, but there was littleopportunity there for the children topursue trades.
In the 1861 census they had moved their family to Blythwhich was a thriving port and all the children where inemployment of some kind, but Thomas was now workingas an Agricultural Labourer on a farm. He was born inDetchant which was an agricultural area, so he may havehad experience of this job when he was younger.
On his son, William’s wedding certificate he is described asa Husbandman, that is usually someone who farms a smallpiece of land for themselves as well as working on largerfarms.
His son, Thomas became a Stonemason in Blyth and livedin a prosperous part of the town, both John and Williambecame Mariners. William became a Master Mariner.
