In my opinion the marriage residence is not always the place of birth. Never forget Workhouse and overseers accounts records of birth

I don't think they're the same - the second one looks much tidier and more fluent to me. Added to which, I'm struggling to see CUTT in either of them. My initial impression of the first one was HILL, though admittedly the first letter does look like a C - but then there's a fainter bit to the left. The second one looks to me like Tho ELLIOTT.

Hope this doesn't throw too many spanners in the works!

It's a hat-trick Dobby - I'm going with Elliott as well.

Hi

What ever it is the T in Thomas and Thos has a long sweep bit in front of the  T also the double loop like a  LL or C  ending ill or itt.

They do have similar features but could be different

Both signatures have a dot floating above the second word ... and the second signature looks like Elliott to me too.

There seems something before the double LL or what looks like C  on the first signature? could that be the bottom of an E = Thomas Elliot as well
