Thomas Dadford, Jr.
Thomas Dadford (Junior) (ca. 1761 to 1801) was an English canal engineer, who came from a family of canal engineers. He first worked with his father in the north of Britain on the Stour and the Trent, but later independently, contributing to a number of canal schemes, mainly in Monmouthshire and Glamorganshire but also in Montgomeryshire and Ellesmere, before dying at the relatively young age of 40.
==Family history==
Thomas Dadford was born in Britain around 1761, the first son of Thomas Dadford (Sr) and Frances Brown, who are believed to have been living in Wolverhampton at the time. His father was a canal engineer, and his brothers John Dadford and James Dadford also worked in this field. Thomas received his early training from his father.
On 15 August 1797, he married Ann Parker of Chaddesley Corbett, Worcestershire. Both were Christians of the Catholic faith. They had no children.
The marriage did not last long, as Thomas died on 2 April 1801. He died at Crickhowell, and was buried at Llanarth, Monmouthshire. The cause of his death is not known.〔Prof A W Skempton (Ed) (2002) ''A Biographical Dictionary of Civil Engineers In Gt Britain'', Thomas Telford Publishers, ISBN 0-7277-2939-X〕 When he died, he left no will, but his wife obtained letters of administration in her favour; and his ''"goods, chattels and credits"'' amounted to £2,000.〔
