Hi
Thanks for your reply
I have had a quick Look and this is what I have
Thomas Hill married Martha Thomas in 1824
She was from the Pulford area and I was trying to find her parents. I found William Thomas who had married Mary Moulton as possible parents for her. My Thomas Hill was from the Leche area and I have his parents James Hill and Catherine Assel/Hassel.
If you have anything on William and Mary I would love to hear from you.

The Lighter Side / Re: Why do they add extra names?
« on: Sunday 22 August 21 13:21 BST (UK)  »
Hi where the family catholic? When a catholic is confirmed they take another name known as a confirmation name. It is not to use on official things. In my family my father always used James Thomas and I can hear my mother saying to him you are not Thomas that’s your confirmation name  but before they met and he joined up for WW2 he joined as James Thomas. Just to add when I have looked at his father who was John he enlisted for WW1 as John James. So father and son both giving themselves an extra name .hope this might help Carolyn
By the way Agnes is a saints name that would be a popular choice for a young lady
