You find a lot of late marriages around1912 as folks had to produce a certificate to claim the married rate of old age pension. |

Ruth Wedrald had 6 children between 1790 and 1809, the 4th was named Thomas Cockbone Weatherald. She married Thomas Cockbone in 1814, and had another child, Obediah Cockbone 9 months later. I don't know what to believe. Until I learn anything different I must assume that Thomas Cockbone is my ancestor although I am descended from Ruth's 3rd child. |
