Mary Ann FOOT born 1851, baptised 27 Feb 1851 Enmore Green Dorset. On 1851 census parents stated as Thomas FOOT and Elizabeth FOOT. I found a baptism for a Thomas FOOT 1819 Motcombe. Although not stated on their 1846 marriage it looks like Elizabeth was previously married as there are children with the name HARRIS.

Firstly have I picked the right Thomas FOOT as I think there are a few about and who was Elizabeth married to before Thomas?

Thanks for any help!

Thank you for all the info, appreciated. Who were the parents of Thomas FOOT, father of Mary Ann FOOT?

A tree on Ancestry says that Elizabeth Hoskins was born May 1810, Shaftesbury, daughter of Francis Hoskins & Ann Lambert and married Asher Harris 9 Aug. 1829. It lists 6 children of that marriage. She then marries Thomas Foote 1846, 2 children listed.
Curiously the tree states that Thomas Foote was the son of Thomas Foote and another Elizabeth Hoskins who was the daughter of William Hoskins & Elizabeth Symes.
