	Option 1. Marriage to Mary Ann Holmes would mean Thomas' Father was George. Option 2. Take the baptism record for Thomas Spencer of 1825, Father would also be Thomas Spencer with Mother Elizabeth and no marriage record for the parents that I can find. Thanks What I have (going backwards is) Vera Haycock born 1915 (Looking at Spencer Ancestors) --------- Harriet Spencer (Great Grandma) born 1875 marries John Haycock (Great Grandad) - Coventry. ----- Parents Thomas Spencer born 1852 Marries Elizabeth Ann Cakebread (Hannah) Coventry. ------- Parent - Thomas Spencer born 1803 Coventry marries???? Elizabeth or as above. Looking to back these up please with records. If we have any further sets of parents going back, this would be great thanks! Everything so far is birth and marriage =Coventry. If you disagree with any of these going backwards please let me know and let me know the source you rely on. This is not to be awkward, it's just to try and get something as definitive as possible. Thanks Ever So Much :-)
