Thank you very much Dea. I have found a Thomas at Fillongley, amongst others in FamilySearch, so I can now progress him with confidence.

Next door to the Psrkers - one wonders if they're related to our couple. Similarly for these neighbours:

http://www.freecen.org.uk/cgi/search.pl is nice for paging thru transcriptions of neighbours, but they only have Bedworth done for 1841/91.
