Here's a possibility for Thomas/Hannah's marriage:

6 September 1829 at St Pancras Parish Chapel
Thomas Leach married Hannah Force

witnesses Thomas Leach and Alice Oxbury(?)

Hi All
Thanks first for the marriage the name Force came up in conversation many years ago
RG9/192/109/25 shows Thomas as coming from Bristol Somerset which is what l have been told down the years
so l believe him to be the correct one as tracing forward the tree comes to me via Robert, Robert, Charles, and Gordon

Its where he was born etc before the that l am interested in

And l Have a clock made by him which is the best part of the search for the family

Thomas Leach baptised 3 April 1808 St James, Bristol
parents:  Thomas Leach & Sarah

Perhaps his father was one of the witnesses at his marriage?
