    Notes:

    Thomas worked as an agriculture laborer

    In the 1841 Census, Thomas was bout 22 years old working in Leeds, Otley, Skyrack Upper Division, in the weaving industry.

    On the 1851 census they are married with one daughter Emma Jane age 2. Thomas is working as a coal porter, living at 81 Florist St. in the New Parish of St. Andrews in Leeds. His father Matthew is also at this address and both are lodgers. Sarah and daughter Emma are living at 137 Coal Pit House, Wooldale, Parochial Chapelry of Holmfirth, Village of Underbank. They are listed as visitors.

    1861 census has the family living at number 150 North Lane, Headingly, Yorkshire. Thomas worked as a cart driver. This data records Sarah's birth place as Headingly.

    1871 census has the family living at number 243 Woodman Fold, Leeds and Otley Road, Far Headingly, Yorkshire.

    Research has the family immigrating to the United States about 1874. In Sarah's obituary is says the family came directly to Anoka, MN in 1874. They show up in the 1880 Census in District 42 Anoka, Anoka Co., MN. I believe their farm was section number 4 because of a 1888 platt map. In 1880 the family was listed as Thomas Smith, farmer, Sarah A., George H., Thomas H. and Louisa born in Minnesota in 1878. In the 1885 Minnesota census the family is in the same location. George is not listed but I found him living in St. Paul, Ward 1. He was age 21 and probably working there. Other four members listed plus granddaughter Ella Hawksley, age 4.
