Thread: Huffers of Lincolnshire

The 1856 History, Gazetteer & Directory of Lincolnshire shows aThomas Huffer, Shoemaker, resident at Bourne, but no further details.


The same Thomas cannot be found on the 1841 census.

ETA - Apologies Spottydog - carelessness on my part - I see you have already located Thomas.
