Biography:

1. Thomas Ashwood was, possibly, the son of John Ashwood. A document (Supply 5/222 dated the 8th May 1804) recorded that Thomas was Apprenticed to the Master Mixer and was paid 1/4d per day. In addition "one day extra [was] allowed for week agreeable to the Board's Order - 12th March, 1801." 2. Thomas was still Apprenticed to the Master Mixer on the 28th March, 1805 (Supply 5/223) but he was then paid 8/2d per week. 3. Supply 5/224 dated the 30th January 1806 stated he was paid 1/4d per day and that he had 2 years service, thereby confirming that his Apprenticeship began in 1804. 4. According to a further List of Officers and Others Employed (Supply 5/226 dated the 18th June 1807), Thomas was still Apprenticed to the Master Mixer, earning 1/6d per day. However, he was not included in the Return dated August 1808, and no further entries for Thomas were found.
