Thomas Aldington, died 1855

Thomas Aldington appears on the 1851 census, living at Elmley Castle, a village in Worchestershire. He was a 'Blacksmith employing 1 man'. His wife, Susanna, presumably the woman seen here next to his gravestone, was a 'Dressmaker' born at Burton-on-the-Hill. They appear to have had one child, a daughter, Elizabeth Anne, born at Elmley Castle in or about 1849. She died on 25 November 1865, aged 27, and was buried in the same grave as her father. Susanna died, aged 83, in 1895.
