Thomas Fisher's wife was Charlotte Gosling (1856->1901). They were married 8 JUL 1876 in Church of St John Parish of Moulsham, Chelmsford Essex..

He was listed in a census 1881 in Lived with his wife Charlotte. Census shows birthplace as Witham, Essex however there is no evidence to support this..
He was listed in a census 1891 in Living.

His occupation was . The dates were 1881. The place was Labourer.
According to 1881 and 1891 census Thomas gave place of birth as Witham a
nd again in 1901.
Having searched the BMD records no record exists for a Thomas Fisher bor
n in the area in the given time ranges or 2 years either side. I have fo
und a Thomas Fisher born Boreham living with brother John and Mother Ann
e now Valentine and Thomas Valentine a Police Officer.
The Certificate of birth for John gives no father and Mother Ann Fisher.
He was born in the Workhouse in Witham.
I have sent for the birth certificate of Thomas Edward Valentine Fishe
r and hope this may end up being my Thomas if not once again I am stuck
. If his mother is Ann with no father I feel sure he is mine despite dis
crepancies in the census info.
All other Thomas Fishers in a wide range of areas have fathers not calle
d Thomas as my Thomas states or are found elsewhere on census material.
