Thomas Simpson

Abt 1736 - 1817  (81 years)

• Name	Thomas Simpson
  Birth	Abt 1736  [1]
  	There are several candidates for his birth. 1736 - Sep, Dalton, son of James of Newbarns 1736/7* - Feb Aldingham, son of Richard of Newbarns 1738 - Jul. Dalton, son of James of Pesholms *pre 1752 so 1st part of year is mixed date Based on the fact that his marriage bond mentions James Simpson, I am inclined to think that his father was James. That reduces us to 2 options September 1736 and July 1738 Based on his age at death (80) in 1817 that leads us to the 1736 entry. Fact Flags: Preferred

• Notes

  Looking at the marriage bond we get the names of another Simpson - James, a Smith. Both Thomas and James were from the parish of Dalton Thomas was a husbandman. It is likely that James was either Thomas's brother or father. Did they need the bond because Isabel was under 21?
