The name Frith dates back to the days of the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. It is a topographic surname, derived from a residence at a bay or wide valley.

Born about 1781, Hinckley, Leicester UK.

At the 1841 census Thomas, his wife Elizabeth, and youngest son John were living in Loughborough, Leicester. All were described as stocking makers.
