Can anyone with access to the Mayfield Registers check if there are any extra details on the marriage of Thomas Fry to Ann Lusted 26 August 1826.
I am not certain about the general assumption of Ancestry trees that he is the son of a John Fry! Census returns are consistent in putting his birth as 1802 Mayfield, but is there an entry for any John Frys around that time in Mayfield?
There is a baptism entry for Thomas Fry 3 Jun 1802 Mayfield Father: John Mother Frances.

I know my Thomas Fry married Ann Lusted, but it was the confirmation that the 1802 baptism linked him with those two parents I was lacking.
This family seems totally seperate from the other John Fry family of Mayfield - also blacksmiths! As that John Fry makes no mention of a Thomas in his Will when listing children and grandchildren :-(
That second baptism is totally baffling - it's the same church so can't be a changing of religion... can it?
