I have him in Lichfield in 1891 with a new wife and a 7 day old baby, still a musician, I have saved the image, send me an email if you want it. Lewis, Margaret A 1 day Lichfield, Staffordshire Boarder St Mary Staffordshire Lewis, Mary 34 Linlithgow, Scotland Boarder St Mary Staffordshire Lewis, Thomas 42 Leeds, Yorkshire Boarder St Mary Staffordshire This was the Tom, you talked about in your email, obviously the John in the previous message is a better bet.
