Notes
Thomas's Baptism Record at St Mary Le Wigford, 1738
Thomas's Marriage to Ann in 1762
At the time of his marriage, Thomas was a sergeant in the 7th Battalion of the Lincolnshire Militia.
Was the witness, Josh Drewry, Thomas's brother?
Was the witness, John Moss, father of the John Moss taken on as an apprentice in 1781?
Thomas was also a Wig-maker like his father.
In 1754: John Gee of Derby, Master Perukemaker took as apprentice: John Drewry; Payment Date: 8 Jun 1754.
In 1765, Thomas Drewry, Master peruke maker in Lincoln, took on William Locking as an apprentice.
In 1781, on the same day that Thomas registered John Moss as an an apprentice, another Thomas drewry was registered as an apprentice to William Calvert, a Surgeon/Apothecary. (Is this Thomas junior?)
In 1790, the Poll-Book has 'Thomas Drewry, Surgeon and Apothecary, Fillingham'.
[Fillingham is 10 miles North of Lincoln]
Also in 1790, the Poll-Book has 'Thomas Drewry, Grocer, Near the High-bridge, Lincoln'.
By 1790, the peruke (wig) trade was finished. Perhaps Thomas senior had started a new business?
