Thomas Smith - married a Wood girl in Hulme (near Manchester) Lancashire, Englan

[Lauraine]

This man was born in 1854 in Shetland to a Laurence Smith and Anderina Yonson/Eunson.  It appears there is a Thomas Smith shown in Hulme and wondering if anyone can spot spot him.

There are many Laurence/Lawrence Smiths b. in Shetland so need to see if this is the correct man.

How would I go about getting a marriage certificate for this man?  Would it show his mother and father?

Marriage 2 Jul 1876 Hulme shows that Thomas was 26 and his father was Lawrence Smith a cooper.

Mary was 26 and her father was Ralph Wood a joiner.

In 1881 Thomas is back with his parents as a widower so Mary must have died soon after marriage. 

Possible death in Sep 1876 age 27.
