Thomas Williamson was living in 52 Wood Street, Maryport, Cumberland, England, UK and working as a Dock laborourer at the time of the 1851 Census, he was living with his wife Jane, and sons John (app. Tailor) and James (app.ship carpenter), the entire family were listed as being born in Ireland. We estimate that he was born between 1797 and 1801 based on the various ages he gave in the 1851, 1861 and 1971 Englaish Census. We think he died in 1872 in Whitehaven, Cumberland, England. There may have been more children who did not come out from Ireland with Thomas and Jane when they came to England but we are not sure.
