Ratcliffe Bury

[seasider]

I'm looking for a possible marriage between Thomas Ratcliffe and Hancock, I think it's Elizabeth.
There are 3 children with mmn Hancock, Elizabeth 1846,John1850 and Thomas 1848 but I can't find a marriage for their parents.
If I'm correct, Thomas appears in India (Corporal Thomas Ratcliffe, 19th Bengal, Royal Artillery). I'm also wondering where his sign up papers are, I have taken a look but can't see any? He married Honoria Burke in Agra 1866.

If I'm correct, Thomas appears in India (Corporal Thomas Ratcliffe, 19th Bengal, Royal Artillery). I'm also wondering where his sign up papers are, I have taken a look but can't see any? He married Honoria Burke in Agra 1866.

That marriage names his father as Richard Ratcliffe

Thanks for looking, I think I am following the wrong family. I had, daughter Elizabeth Ratcliffe born Oldham 1845/46. Parents Elizabeth born Ireland and Father Thomas Born Warrington a joiner,1851 census Salford. No sign of them in 1861, maybe they died or Elizabeth married? I can't find a marriage for parents or baptism for their daughter Elizabeth, I thought there maybe more children too.

How do you link to that family
