I am surrounded by mounds of paper trying to find a piece of information I am sure I had but can't find anywhere, so.... could some kind person check for me the birth of Thomas Jabez Fehr in 1842. It was either London or Birmingham and a bell at the back of my head says that he is only shown as Male Fehr 1842. Thank you.... or maybe it would show his birthplace on the 1851 census.
