Thom Jonsen

Post by nelmit » Thu Jul 21, 2011 7:47 pm

Hi all,

Hoping somebody can help with this one.

Thom Jonsen born about 1902 - parents Thom Jonsen (Doctor of Medicine) and Mary Carroll according to his marriage.

I couldn't find his birth or a marriage for the parents when I was at The Mitchell today.

I can see a Thom Jensen arriving at UK but can't get to the library just now to look at that one.

Any help much appreciated.

Regards,
Annette

Hi Annette,
Do you have him in 1911? Where does he say he was born?* I'm not finding anything very convincing in the incoming passenger lists-- what year was the one you are interested in? There is a Thom Jensen arriving in 1900 at Liverpool from New York on the Rhynland. That one is a Lab and age 35, so it would be quite a jump to become a Doctor of Medicine from there!

I'm probably just not seeing the right one... brain is fried from too much heavy equipment operation :lol:

Cheers,
Sarah

*Just occurred to me that he was probably not yet in the UK by 1911-- right?

Thanks for looking Sarah - that was probably the one I could see on Ancestry but couldn't access. No definitely not him then.

My source is too modern to post but I'll pm you tomorrow - really must go to bed now.

Don't work too hard. :D

Best wishes,
Annette
