Daniel Thompson (bap. 30 Jul 1809 St Andrew's, Cransley), son of Solomon Thompson Jnr and Maria Willis and Mary Adcock (bap. 30 Apr 1810 at All Saints, Pytchley), daughter of Joseph Adcock and Sarah Cook, a pair of my 3x great-grandparents, married, on 25 Oct 1832, at All Saints, Pytchley.
Daniel and Mary had five children:
- Sarah Elizabeth Thompson bap. 15 Dec 1833 in Broughton

- Dan Thompson b. 12 Oct 1848 (1848 D Quarter in KETTERING Volume 15 Page 260), bap. 5 Nov 1848 at St Andrews of Cransley
Benjamin's birth was registered at the GRO with the surname Tompson (without the H), while Louisa and Dan were both registered with the surname Thompson (with the H) and all with the mother's maiden name ADCOCK.
In 1841, Daniel Tompson (30), carpenter, was living in Cransley Street, Broughton, with his wife, Mary (30), daughter Sarah (8) and son George (5). Also staying with them were Maria Blackett (25), Dressmaker (Daniel's sister); Ann Ray (30); Emily Ray (1) and Sarah Hewitt (10).
In 1851, living at the same address of Cransley Street, Broughton, were Daniel Thompson (42) Carpenter, Mary Thompson (41), Sarah Thompson (17) Dressmaker; George Thompson (14) Carpenter; Benjamin Thompson (9), Louisa Thompson (6) and Dan Thompson (2).
Daniel Thompson, Carpenter & Wheelwright, died, aged 45, on 15 Feb 1854 (1854 M Quarter in KETTERING Volume 03B Page 114) and was buried, on 19 Feb 1854, at St Andrew's, Broughton. His effects, which were valued under £100, were granted to his widow, Mary Tompson, in 1861.
In 1861, the widowed Mary Thompson (51) was living in the household of her son George, at 9, Mount Pleasant, Broughton, who appeared to have taken over the family business as a Carpenter employing 2 men and 1 boy.
Then in 1871, Mary and younger daughter, Louisa, were staying with eldest daughter, Sarah and son-in-law, Daniel Botterill, in Deptford.
Mary Thompson died, aged 69 in 1879 D Quarter in HOLBORN Volume 01B Page 501 (Daniel Botterill, married to eldest daughter, Sarah, was landlord of the Clock House (formerly Coach & Horses), in Leather Lane, Holborn in 1881, so I think it safe to assume that's where Mary was at the time of her death). Mary was buried, on 15 Oct 1879, at St Andrew's, Broughton.
