Events

Event Date Place Description Sources
Birth [E0006] 5/11/1880 14 Amberley Street, Toxteth Park, Liverpool, Lancashire Birth registered in West Derby, Lancashire, England. Maybe that's the Toxteth reg. district. 1 2
Residence [E0386] between 1885 and 1887 17 Trafalgar Road, Birkdale, Southport, Lancashire 1887 date is from White's. 1885 Namebase. 3 4a
Residence [E0383] between 1887 and 1891 Willow Hall, Sowerby Bridge, Halifax, West Riding, Yorkshire Start date established in the Monthly Tidings article, recording the Catharine St. Presbyterian Church's thanks to Thomas for almost 20 years service. 1891 census gives Willow Hall Lane - if in another house here, that may explain the discordance re address. 1a 3 5a 6a
Education [E0065]   Calday Grange Grammar School, West Kirby, Wirral, Cheshire    
Residence [E0388] between 1901 and 1902 5, Dunraven Road, West Kirby, Wirral, Cheshire Thomas, Annie, Joe, TTA, ATA, EDA, Harriet (sister in law), Mary Anne Jones 24 Rhos Denbigh servant 3 7 8
Occupation [E0865] 1901   TRAVELLER TO (OR MANCHESTER WAREHOUSEMAN), i.e. working for his father. 7
Degree [E0057] 1908 Liverpool University, Liverpool, Lancashire M.B., Ch.B. Old David paid for his medical studies at Liverpool University, as some kind of quid pro quo, or perhaps because Thomas was broke. AMA thought he graduated in 1906 or 1907. 9a
Occupation [E0970] estimated between 1908 and 1909 Bolton Royal Infirmary, Chorley Street, Bolton, Lancashire AMA: He worked first at Bolton Royal Infirmary as a houseman, I think a surgical houseman, where the strain of treating victims of terrible accidents in the textile mills so undermined his health that he signed on for a year as a ship's doctor on a tramp steamer. 10
Occupation [E0971] estimated between 1909 and 1910   Ship's doctor on a tramp steamer to New York (armed robbery on road to Chicago) and Brazil. 10

Occupation [E0782] between 1914 and 1938 Parkside House, 107 Liscard Road, Egremont, Wallasey, Wirral, Cheshire GP. Start date uncertain, initially in partnership with Dr Banks who had the practice and built the house. Parkside House, 107 Liscard Road is ATA's home address on his death in 1917, so presumably bought (into) practice before the war.

Occupation [E0784] 1914 Neston, Wirral, Cheshire Physician/surgeon. Date/location/profession may be based on 1913 data, i.e. he may have already gone. 8
