That marriage must be a different family as your John was born c1821 and the one whose marriage details you have just posted was born c1840.

ChristineinPortugal Report 16 Jun 2008 18:25

It gives Elizabeth as wife of Thomas and she is listed directly under him. So Hannah must have died and he remarried.

John is listed at end of family and brother to Thomas the head of household. It doesn't give John's marital status.
