Yes I think you're right because you said before she was born in 1816 so it must be right, thanks so much for filling in so many gaps.

My Grandmother was a Corker, she's still alive (95 yrs old!). I'm going to call her tomorrow and tell her!

From the censuses both Thomases had middle initials C.  Dont know if that'll help at all.

I can't find a record of Nancy or Thomas's births.

On Ance*** there is a tree for a THOMAS CRANK CORKER Married to NANCY COOKE , I would put a few bob on Thomas's Mother's surname being CRANK..if you get the Marriage certificate for Thomas and Nancy it will give you Fathers names..... On the IGI there is a marriage of a JOHN CORKER to ELIZABETH CRANK in Liverpool in 1808.


I'll see if i can find any more details.
