This Thomas Westwood marries an Elizabeth Unknown
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =727239730

On Ancestry numerous trees have this Thomas Westwood who married an Elizabeth Sheriff as same Thomas Westwood as above after marriage
https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =631512505

However this is incorrect as Locations and trades do not tie up . and Elizabeth Sheriff was a servant in 1881

Need to find marriage of second one and Before marriage for both of them

Thanks mallosa I have tried every option and come up with nothing. I followed and Elizabeth Parsons who was right age and location who married a Thomas Weston and he died but eliminated as she is with father.in.law in 1881 not with Thomas Westwood

I agree with you Kaye - https://www.tribalpages.com/tribe/brows ... =466847155

Thomas's year of birth needs to be changed (according to FreeReg marriage)
