Additional Information

Sarah bore Edmund Henry out of wedlock, and baptised him as illegitimate, although the baptism record says Illegit. father Edmund TOMLINSON (watchmaker). This is interesting as Edmund Tomlinson the watchmaker later married a Sarah (Sarah Box in actual fact) and went on to have a large family.

In the 1841 census, when Edmund Henry was 9 years old, he was listed in the Workhouse, a pauper, but when he married in 1855 he acknowledged Edmund Tomlinson as his father. I have been unable to find his whereabouts in 1851, nor have I been able to find anything further on Moses and Sarah Blackford.
