Thomas Hardy (political reformer)
Thomas Hardy (3 March 1752, Larbert, Stirlingshire, Scotland – 11 October 1832, Queens Row, Pimlico, London〔) was an early Radical, and the founder and first Secretary of the London Corresponding Society.
==Early life==
Hardy was born on 3 March 1752, the son of a merchant seaman. His father died in 1760 at sea while Thomas was still a boy. He was sent to school by his maternal grandfather〔 and later apprenticed to a shoemaker in Stirlingshire. He later worked in the Carron Iron Works. As a young man, he came to London just before the American Revolutionary War. In 1781 he married the youngest daughter of a carpenter and builder named Priest from Chesham, Buckinghamshire and had six children, all of whom died in infancy. His wife, pregnant with her sixth child died in childbirth on 27 August 1794, her child being stillborn, perhaps as the result of injuries sustained when a loyalist mob attacked the Hardy home some weeks earlier.〔Uglow, Jenny. In These Times: Living in Britain through Napoleon's Wars, 1793-1815. New York: Farrar, Straus, and Giroux, 2014.〕 In 1791 Hardy opened his own boot and shoe shop at 9 Piccadilly, London.〔
