The christening of Peter Goldsmith lists his father as a blacksmith but I wonder if his name links to wealthier origins. (Edit - I see his brother died in the workhouse in 1845 so maybe not) Have you found Peter's will or Sarah father's will - Jonathan Wilby? |

Workhouses were also the only hospital in some areas. Perhaps this was the case for them |
