Braddock looks more like it seeing when the first child was born

Where does Davies come from?

Checking on Lancsbmd the William Cooper marriage that Choccy posted, he did marry Elizabeth Braddock, at St Barnabas, Openshaw. Lancsbmd usually shows previous names for women marrying twice; in this instance, there is no other surname for Elizabeth, so it doesn't look as if she was previously a Davies.
