	Good find Maddie ! The image for that marriage in 1832 is on Ancestry. Thomas signed the register, Charlotte made her mark. One of the witnesses is A. Brown

	This link to transcriptions of baptisms at St Mary's Wivenhoe shows Abraham to be a tailor and the family abode is Ipswich https://essexandsuffolksurnames.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/wivenhoe-baptisms-1813-1828.pdf I wonder why the 2 boys were not baptised at the same time, if that birthdate is correct and why Wivenhoe was used if the family lived in Ipswich ?

	That looks a good find Maddie. May be Abraham's employment was linked to the Military and when they moved, so did he? I remember looking for this family............ Michael descends from Isaac, the brother of Abraham.
