General Notes: Husband - Thomas TOPPING

Mine Inspectors report:
Thomas Topping

Lancashire, Fatally injured by roof falling where he was drawing a chock.
Inspection and inquest attended.


Research Notes: Wife - Sarah BARTON

Cannot find Sarah in the 1891 & 1901 censuses. There is a Sarah TOPPING in the 1901 census (born in Billinge) living with her daughter Martha A Marsh. Martha was born in 3rd Qu 1891 and so was born before any marriage of Thomas & Sarah.


Notes: Marriage

WARNING: There was also a Thomas TOPPING/Sarah who lived at the same time in Manchester and had children of similar names.


They moved from Lancashire to Durham between May 1870 and Apr 1871. .
