According to 1851 census Hannah was born 1786 and Thomas 1772

Never take 1841 ages as correct as that year they were rounded down to nearest 5.

Not saying it's the right couple but for future reference, girls were allowed to marry at age 12 and boys aged 14

Ok Mike I didn't know the 1851 census did that good info.
Also didn't think about age in that year could be so young for marriage.Well will assume that your info is correct. Thanks.
