We are in the middle of our winter here with temps at -30C/-40C with snow and high winds. We live at an elevation of 3500 Ft so it is expected. To the Nicholls/Nicholds I had another letter from a fellow in the UK saying that as both Thomas and his father, also Thomas, were watch and clock makers that they may be listed as tradesmen. So I am going to see if they were and maybe finally solve the surname riddle.
