Sorry should've mentioned that he had two young children Barbara and Alfred. I'm wondering what happened to his kids.

Hi there Could someone please see if they can find Thomas Masterman for me in 1881 ? I have tried and tried but with no success. He could be in either England or Scotland as he was born in England but moved to Scotland with his 2nd wife and died in Scotland in 1891. His year of birth is c.1829 and he was a potter. Thanks very much. Marie x
