Hi If someone could kindly help to establish Isaac Wood's mothers maiden name ? Isaac was born about 1855.His Father's name was Thomas Wood .The 1861 census tells us that Thomas was married to Ann who was 28 years old.They were living inToxteth Park,Liverpool,Lancs.Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thomas and Ann were both born in Cheshire - in Witton.

So this marriage looks likely?

Hi Everyone

thanks for your help so far, putting the pieces together we have concluded that Thomas Wood married Ann Shaw in 1836, however we found a death for an Ann Wood in 1854 (age shows as 39).

We have assumed that Thomas married for a second time, as his Son Isaac was born in 1855. The 1861 census shows Ann Wood as being 28 - hence being much younger than her husband Thomas. So we are now looking for another marriage for Thomas between 1854 and 1855 - not sure if the area is Lancashire or Cheshire, so we would be grateful for any help in finding this marriage.

Thanks in advance

Margaret

Here is one to consider

To make sure of the mother's maiden name you would be best to purchase Isaac Wood's birth certificate.

This appears to be his birth registration
