Well done on finding this family and many thanks for letting me know. Good to think that Thomas was there for my William's wedding in 1813. Next step is to find Thomas's birth!

I'm looking for a marriage record for Thomas Miles and Ann ?. Their second son William born in 1790 had an older brother John born 1782 so was the wedding around 1780 perhaps? Can anyone help?

As far as I can ascertain, Thomas MILES and Anne HOW had at least five children:-

Anne born 1769/1770 (possibly my great great great grandmother)
Thomas, baptised Newland, 29 January 1773
John, baptised Newland 5 May 1782
Elinor (Nelly), baptise Newland 28 January 1787
William, baptised Newland

Thomas snr was buried at Newland 2 February 1823
