I am looking for information about John T Blackburn. It seems he married Ann Pearce in 1832, then marries Ellen TYRELL IN 1848. he then seems to be with another Ann in 1861. I can find no marriage for this Ann and John after 1848 - or a death for Ellen. csn anyone help please?

Thank you. Alice

Do you actually have the 1848 marriage cert to confirm it is the same man

No, both marriages are parish records on ancestry and the fathers names are the same and Johns occupation is the same too, so I am pretty sure it is him.

Got 2 problems

The first marriage would not give name of father

1861 census I think is not your family

Hi Vikki, The first is his marriage and the second is one of their children. Thank you

GlitterBaby

Glitter Babe - Vikki has put a baptism of one of the children up. I think the marriages are both for john. He has the same middle name Thompson which is fairly unusual.

Got another problem

If the 1851 census is correct then the 1861 census must be wrong. His occupation does not match nor do the names of the children

His occupation on second marriage is tailor which does match the 1851

I agree - there is somethihing strange - but very odd that there are two marriages for John Thompson Blackburn and he is said to be widdowed on the second. however I do agree the censuses do not match.
