 :) No problem, do you know what happened to Elizabeth Pierce/Salisbury b c 1853 Hope?
Also checking possible James Pierce back an interesting one in 1851 Liverpool aged 29 b Holywell with amongst others a Hannah Jones 12 shown as Niece, not saying it is your Hannah but one to look at?!

Can anyone check the marriage of Hannah Jones to Mr pierce???. Also I believe William married Amelia Thomas. Still haven't got any concrete facts.x

Can you give evidence why you believe Amelia Thomas married William Pierce?
He is indeed married to an Amelia in 1891 with a daughter Harriett aged 6 b Gwersyllt
Census ref RG12/4614/27/2

I think William either uses Pierce or Pearce as surname,  where you got Amelia Thomas from you can possibly explain,  as there is a William Pearce  possibly marrying an Amelia Moody Sept qtr 1882 Wrexham 11b 402?

In the 1911 census  34 Wrexham rd. Brynteg brought on. William and Amelia  have 26yr old Harriet with them. Also is Amelia's father John Thomas a widower aged 71. A shoe maker in his "own" account. It looks like he was born in Wrexham. William in stansty. Amelia in moss...Harriet stansty😃

Hi again, searching for a John Thomas occ Shoemaker b c 1840 Wrexham gives this family unit:-

1881 census

John Thomas 41 occ Shoemaker
Catherine 52
Thomas Moody 24
Wm Henry Moody 18
Both stepsons
Residing at Butchers Field, Broughton
Census ref RG11/5516/61/11
So John Thomas was Amelia's Stepfather

The father of Amelia was an Edward aged 36 b Holt in 1861 Broughton
Census ref RG09/4286/32/4
1871 Catherine now a Thomas

Baptism Amelia Moody 25th October 1857 Brymbo Father Edmund occ Shoemaker Mother Catherine

Butchers Field ties in well with my Salisbury connection at that time in history. So I'm doing a little dance.😂
I couldn't find Hannah or James in 1851. ..  Thanks for the hard work. It gives me a few names to play with. This isn't just helping me  another friend has been stuck with the same line so thanks.xxxx
