At the time of the 1881 census, Thomas was living with his wife Elizabeth and children at 12 Moses Street, Liverpool but by 1871 he had already moved to Liverpool and was living at 11 Drysdale Street, Toxteth Park and working at a rice mill. From the births of the other children we can see that Thomas and family moved to Liverpool around 1861-1862.

Thomas' father Peter Yoxall, a farmer and his wife Elizabeth Manley had eight children who were all born in Cheshire.
Peter was born 30th April, 1798 at Middlewich, Cheshire. His own father was Moses Yoxall who, based on his age at burial in 1826, is believed to have been born about 1751.
