Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 3 Send Message	Thomas William Simpson is the name of the father my 84 year-old mother never knew. My grandmother (b.1903) of Hunslet in Leeds never disclosed details of Thomas or their relationship to my mother. Family members also kept what they knew to themselves. We don't know if Thomas was aware that he had fathered a child outside of marriage. Does anyone have any information on this matter. I can provide further details if clarification is needed. Any information gratefully received.
