Still trying to digest all this, and the family are demanding some attention ::) Something's bothering me (not just my wife and son!) I'll get back to you, have a good sleep!

Quite a coincidence too that Thomas married a Sarah, and his mother and father were Sarah and Thomas. I guess they were common names at the time, still are really.

Could this be their marriage? (FreeBMD)
JONES  Sarah    Market Drayton  18 205   
ROBINSON  Thomas     Market Drayton  18 205


I wish I could pin down Sarah Dobson's dob, so far she's born in 1844, 1845, and 1846!!!! Maybe she wasn't sure herself!  :)
