Hi Pat,
this is really interesting.
My Thomas Daniel married a Martha Eccles but I don't have a marriage place or date for them.
However in the 1851 census Thomas Daniel gave his place of birth as Cheadle.
At the date of John and Mary's marriage Thomas would have been about 30 and Martha about 24 so it is very possible that the four people were related in some way and possibly brother(s) and Sister(s). Do you know if there was any more information in the parish registers? I must go and have a look.
Many thanks for this as I only have record of them in the 1851 census in Poynton and can't find them elsewhere in census, birth, marriage or even burial registers. Only one of their children appears in a marriage register as far as I can gather and that's Elizabeth my 3 x great grandmother. Her siblings, Henry (born 1833/4), David (born 1847), and Lydia (born 1849/50) don't seem to be traceable at the moment either for a census after 1851, death or marriage.
This has given me some hope when I was fast losing it.
Thank you.
Regards
Jean Sandra
