Thomas Lewis born Leeds 1847. I have found him on the 1881, aged 34 living in Halifax with his 2 children (born in Carlisle) Cumberland and a servant Mary Ryan from Scotland. A very kind member found him on the 1891 in Litchfield. Now married to Mary the Scotland born servant and they have a baby named Margaret. Another clue was that on both census he was a musician. I wondered whether he had married !st time in Carlisle as his 1st children were born there. For any information at all, I should be most grateful, Karen
