In 1851 Thomas Hagen is living with his parents and relation to head of house states -  wife's son before marriage. He is then said to be 21 years old and an agricultural labourer.

House not found 1864, 1865 or 1868.
In 1868 Thomas Hagen is recorded only as a coal seller.

Thomas Hagen applied for a Spirit Licence Monday 31st August 1874. The application was opposed by Mr. Kendall of the CROWN, who said that since the BOAR also had a spirit licence, there was no further requirement. One of the two magistrates present, Mr. Everett, said that although the character of the applicant was unimpeachable, he saw no need to licence a third house but nonetheless he would say nothing to prejudice the mind of his brother magistrate and would bow to his decision. The Rev. R. Phayre granted the licence.

It seems a short lived victory since.......
