Sorry, Ammanda, it's mother's father's father's mother this week! Would you like me to move this thread onto the Research Questions board if you want some help tracing him?

The marriage was at St Mary's Church, Prestwich, no middle name listed for Thomas on the index. If you order a copy of the marriage certificate it should tell you the name of Thomas's father.

I found the marriage on UKBMD:
Forename(s) Spouse's Surname GRAY Thomas Spouse's Forename(s) DILLON Catherine Year 1838 Church / Register Office Prestwich, St.Mary Registers At Bury Lancashire Region Reference Order On-line CE18/2/186 http://www.lancashirebmd.org.uk/marriages.php You can order the marriage certificate from them or direct from the GRO. This will give you Thomas's father and occupation and Catherine's father and occupation. Last edited by ElizabethHerts; 20-10-10 at 07:40.
