Thomas LAPHAM¹

M, #19054, b. 1792

Birth*

Thomas LAPHAM was born in 1792 at Kilmington, Somerset, England.¹

Marriage*

He married Mary LAPHAM, daughter of Robert LAPHAM and Sophia BIRD, on 23 November 1835 at St John the Baptist, Frome, Somerset, England. Wit: Thos CRUSE, John BARRY (clerks).²

Census 1851*

Thomas LAPHAM was aged 58 in the 1851 census and lived at Church Road, Frome, Somerset, England.

Note*

Other information; I am unable to positively identify this man's family. The only Thomas LAPHAM born in Kilmington in 1792 (or thereabouts) was:
(1) presumably dead by 1810 when his parents had another son named Thomas, and
(2) the brother of Mary LAPHAM, who is allocated as the wife of this Thomas LAPHAM

Since it is impossible to marry one's sister, there are some possibilities:
(1) Robert & Sophia LAPHAM had two living sons named Thomas, AND Mary LAPHAM (wife of Thomas) was NOT their daughter
(2) There was another Thomas LAPHAM born in Kilmington in about 1792 but no baptism record survives
(3) He was not baptised as a LAPHAM (cf. Charles BIRD who became Charles LAPHAM after his mothers' marriage to Richard LAPHAM)

Possible parents of this man are:
James & Elizabeth (they were married in Frome - there's a link)
William & Mary
Giles & Decima
Robert & Tabitha (most likely parents - there was a gap in children 1789-1794)
John & Jane

NB. The son of Sophia LAPHAM (d/o Robert & Sophia) was described as his nephew. This is presumably because Sophia was the sister of his wife Mary. If in fact Thomas was the s/o Robert & Sophia, then his wife is mis-identified, as he couldn't marry his sister.

It's also possible that Mary LAPHAM was a widow at her 1835 marriage in Frome.

Census 1861*

He was aged 69 in the 1861 census and lived at Church Fields, Frome, Somerset, England.

Occupation*

He was a Ag Labourer.

Birth*

Uriah LAPHAM was born in 1815 at Kilmington, Somerset, England.¹

Marriage*

He married Mary Ann RHOODS at Corfu, .^2,3

Note*

Other information; The link between Uriah LAPHAM and Thomas LAPHAM & Elizabeth GREEN, is not conclusively proven. It seems a likely match, based on name, age and location. Without Uriah, there would be a six-year gap in births for the mother, which would have been unusual, but by no means impossible. Uriah's presumptive brother John joined the same regiment at the same time, which certainly adds to the likelihood.

Occupation*

Uriah LAPHAM was a Colour Sergeant Army.
