Hi,
Thanks for all your help. Margaret Davis was Elizabeth's step mother...her children are listed as Davis on the 1841 census and appear on Elizabeth's marriage certificate as a witness.
So Richard was a widower when he married Margaret...so presumably the wife before was Elizabeth's mother BUT on Ancestry there is a marriage in Oct 1832 to Hannah, a marriage in Nov 1832 to Catherine but they are still after Elizabeth and Henry were born!
There is an Oliver Richard Anderson who married Mary in 1815...he was a FWK. Maybe that's him?
Also there is a possible son...Richard Anderson aged 19 got married in 1840 in Derby and his father was Richard. Again I can't find his baptism.
I hadn't realised I could apply for Richard's marriage certificate to Ann so thank you for that, like you say I would get his father's name.
