Thomas Briggs Bulcock who married Elizabeth Chapman on 30 Aug 1853 at Manchester Cathedral was aged 20 (born circa 1833) and his father was Benjamin Bulcock, carter;

Thomas Boocock who married Mary Ann Hague on 22 Nov 1875 at Hulme St Mark was aged 42 (born circa 1833) and his father was Benjamin Boocock, carter;

In 1853 he was a van driver and in 1875 he was a waterman.

Does anyone think that the two Thomas' are the same person please?  The signatures look different on the parish registers and Briggs has disappeared too.
