Having talked to Tom Boughton's grand daughter, recently, (she is 87 years old) I was told that the reason Tom ended up in the Lunatic Asylum in Gloucester was that he, with other miners, had been caught in a mining accident the year before and he had been crushed and suffered bad head injuries. She did'nt know the name of the pit.
He was moved just before he died to Westbury Hall, which was a form of workhouse/hospice I'm told.
