Good Morning Simone,

Yes those are his parents, if that is Thomas why the surname Webster ??

No the Thomas who married Ann Glover his Father was Edward.

Thank you for your help.

Yes those are his parents, if that is Thomas why the surname Webster ??

Have you found any other children to the Bonney's? The age of them, I'm wondering if Thomas isn't actually their child. Might they have had a daughter who gave birth to him, perhaps later marrying the father?

What evidence do you have that Thomas of Wigan is the child of these parents married in Preston?

[margie]

Simone, Mary A,

Thank you for your help, and your interest.

Yes we have all the other children of our William & Catherine. Thomas only came to light this week after a lady found the xd details at Wigan Archives.

Thomas born 1827 xd St.Mary RC Wigan.

All the other children were xd at Bryn.

Yes we still dont know why they were married at Preston and I dont suppose we ever will.

Thank you for your time.

Best Wishes Margie.

Perhaps you could let us have the details that you have of the other children, it might just help us.
