Here's a coincidence Anne - I've just posted details of my MFFF William James Crisp - his nephew Frederick William Crisp is a grocer in Moreton in Marsh High Street in 1891 and has a Leonard J Horne aged 20 as his shopman. Would this be one of your Thomas's descendants?

It certainly is a coincidence. I have found a couple of Leonard Horne's but not that one.

[Jill]

I expect they all knew of each other, as it's not that big a place

I think they worked in the same street.
