  1. 1.  Thomas Giddings was born Between 1807 and 1810, England; died Aft 1 Jun 1870.

    Notes:

    In the Federal Census of 1850, the family is living in Providence, RI: Thomas 42 Eng, Rebecca 33 PEI, Ann 15, Thomas 13, Edwin 10, Isaac 10, John 8, and Rachel 7 (all children b PEI). Thomas is a blacksmith.

    In the Federal Census of 1870, the family is living in North Providence, RI. Thomas is still a blacksmith. It appears that Rebecca and all the children were born in PEI except Sarah whose birthplace is given as Rhode Island.

    I do not find them in 1860 so perhaps they returned to PEI and then later came back to RI.

    He is probably the Thomas Giddings age 72 who died in Providence 3 July 1879; parents identified as Joseph and Sarah Giddings.

    Thomas married Rebecca Unknown Abt 1834. Rebecca was born Abt 1816, Prince Edward Island, Canada; died Aft 1 Jun 1870. [Group Sheet]
