Like other Barnsley Nock families they keep changing surnames for some reason

Do we have Thomas in 1841?

is there a marriage for him and Ann

why are they Barnsley/Nock

is this the main family on Bcc....ie they all stem from Thomas?
but take name Barnsley or Nock or Barnsley nock

Do you want to run with this any more Mumbles?

If so I can leave here see if anyone can find 1841 and more info

Not found marriage but Ancestry Tree notes Ann Jones

In 1901 as Isaiah B. Nock
and in 1911 as Isaiah Barnsley Nock living with daughter Sarah Ann who married a Joseph Guest as Sarah Barnsley keeping up with family tradition of changing surname
