I've discounted that Henry Bailey. I dug into that one. James' wife was Martha and I've tracked the family and am confident that this is not him. Have made a strong note in my tree

On Henry Bailey Thompson's birth record Henry snr is a shipwright journeyman. On his shipping record he is a toolmaker.

Place of birth for Henry jnr is 7 Willow Terrace, Bishopwearmouth

With regards to:

I appreciate all your research enzfan, what I find awkward is Ann possibly appearing in 1851 on 2 census.

Two different Anns. Ann Preston Jackson with a Henry Bailey in Sunderland and probably Ann Cornwall in Northumberland under the name Ann Hood. Nothing here is certain

On Henry Bailey Thompson's birth record his parents are recorded as Henry Thompson and Ann Thompson, formerly Cornwell.

Henry Bailey Thompson was born in Bishopwearmouth.

By 1859, at the time of their second child's birth the family name was Bailey. When the family left England for NZ in 1860 they travelled under the family name of Bailey.

Perhaps Ann married a second time, making her marriage to Henry the third. According to info in NZ Henry and Ann married in 1856. It is likely that Ann was Catholic.

Hi

This is a continuation of a thread I posted with regards to a baptism.
 
https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=891993.0


Henry Bailey Thompson's birth was registered in Sunderland so I'm wondering if the parents married there. It's all very complicated.

The couple are Henry Bailey and his wife Ann nee Cornwall. They emigrated to NZ in 1860 with two children. Ann was married, as a minor, to a Joseph Hood/Wood prior to meeting Henry. I know nothing about Henry BUT interestingly on their first child's birth he is named as Henry Thompson so did he change his name from Thompson to Bailey? Ann was originally from Manchester and Henry was apparently originally from Nottingham and was born around 1823. The shipping record shows that the Bailey family was from Durham

I desperately need a marriage record to find out who Henry's father was. His NZ death record does not include parents.

A bit tricky to unpick, I know!

Yes I have all that.

I am going to create a new thread to try and find the marriage. Perhaps Durham

I have got a copy of the birth registration entry for Henry Bailey Thompson.

He was born in Bishopwearmouth, Durham on the 2nd August 1857. Birth date conflicts with birth date recorded at baptism. F=Henry Thompson, Shipwright journeyman, M=Ann formerly Cornwell

Poses lots of questions really

Yes, I have wondered whether Henry married Ann Preston Jackson but can't find anything after 1851.

I have just been looking for a Henry Thompson and have found one in Northumberland living with f=Henry - anchorsmith and m=Ann. Also a brother Matthew - anchorsmith. Henry is a blacksmith. The family is recorded as not having been born in that county
