Title: Thomas Moore born 1859 Chesterfield
Post by: harlor on Wednesday 18 June 25 16:46 BST (UK)
Am looking for any info on Thomas Moore who married Theresa Baker in 1882 at Newbold Church as to whether or not they had any children.

In the GRO index there are apparently no births in Chesterfield up to 1896.  Moor also checked.

Did they remain in Chesterfield?  Have you found the couple in the 1891 census?  The nearest group of Moore/Baker births seems to be in Pontefract, West Riding.

They were there until 1901 census with no children shown, Thomas appears to have died 1910, cannot  find Theresa in 1911 though, that census MAY have recorded children born but probably not if she was a widow.

Bear in mind that when Theresa married she was a widow aged 20, her maiden name Barley, father Benjamin- shovel maker.

She 1st married Arthur George Baker 25th July 1881,aged 18, her father Benjamin BURLEY--Shovel Maker

Many thanks for that bit of prime info I never knew she was a widow when she married Thomas. Looking at the answers given I take it they didnt have any children so many thanks to all involved.

I personally do not think they had any children. Cannot find Theresa’s death or her after 1901
