Member Since: January 2011 Posts: 15 Send Message	Hi, i need some help trying to find who the 1st wife of RICHARD THICK (b c1806) was. I am fairley sure he had children called ISAAC b c1826, GEORGE b c1828 and PRISCILLA b c1830 with her. i think his 2nd wife was HARRIOT WHITE and they married in 1843.

	Can you tell us where you have looked already so no one wastes time doing the same searching? And of course the impotant question (as the instructions for posting say) -- where??? How have you connected the children to him?

	I guess we can always search for the information people don't give, how much more convenient if they just give it ......... The possible second marriage Marriages Dec 1843 (>99%) BISHOP Mary Ann Bristol 11 233 Humphries William Bristol 11 233 Huxtable Jane Bristol 11 233 Lawrance John Bristol 11 233 Naish Daniel Bristol 11 233 Pearce Hester Bristol 11 233 Thick Richard Bristol 11 233 < WHITE Harriet Bristol 11 233 < so again presumably there is a reason to connect him with Harriet White ..........

If so he could have been born as early as 1801.

	You may want to try some of these sites yourself now John I used freereg http://www.freereg.org.uk/cgi/Search.pl I think alviegal probably used http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html or a variation of that

	If you search at freereg for a baptism for Richard Thick 1810 +/- 10 years in Somerset you will find his baptism 1805 and it gives his parents' names as Richard and Grace They seem a little old to have those children in the 1820s but you can spend some time looking around there and see what you think
