Could Thomas have been of St Barnabas parish

Can you read the clergy's name ?

Ummmmm....

ALLWOOD was definitely the Rev'd at St James at that time.  And I have seen that signature so I am confident that's his signature after 'By me'   ....

I am actually leaning towards thinking that after he had written something there for Thomas LEE's then usual abode, he realised that Thomas LEE attended his own St James, and so he overwrote the scribble to make it seem to read St James.  I realise IF my speculations were right that he ought to have changed the 'e' to 'is' .... and based on that lack of change, (from 'e' to 'is') I am 'not sure'.

I will dig out some paper records from ALLWOOD, but likely not this weekend, may be the weekend after.

Ancestry uploaded much of the Anglican Diocese of Sydney's Parish Registers ... they ought to have St James images for that year ...

Cannot find St James listed on Ancestry's list... (Cannot find Christ Church St Lawrence, or St Philips either ... umm )

So looking at the next marriage ...
Thomas Henry Blackburn VENOUR is findable on Municipal electoral roll 1842, house, Pyrmont (Philips Ward, Sydney)

Now to find LEE ...

Bourkes Ward  :) ... remember that Rev Allwood had both a clerical position and a civil/public position/role at a time when the new Parliament were attempting to introduce civil registrations for bdms... (took another generation for that to occur, and then the debates continued on re marriage registers)...

But perhaps the word Allwood may have originally written was Bourkes

Sydney Municipal Electoral Roll 1842
Thomas LEE, House, Queen's Place

Or three ...
1842
Returns of the Colony
Thomas LEE, Assistant Surgeon at the Tarban Creek Asylum annual salary £136/17/6

No listing for a Thomas LEE, 1842, in the Philip Ward
No listing for a Thomas LEE, 1842, in the Macquarie Ward
No listing for a Thomas LEE, 1842, in the Gipps Ward
No listing for a Thomas LEE, 1842, in the Cook Ward
No listing for a Thomas LEE, 1842, in the Brisbane Ward
leaving just the one in the Bourke Ward ... and yet two were married that year ! perhaps one was not yet sufficiently funded to be eligible to enrol to vote.
