Thomas's baptism record gives his mother's surname as Morris - but then it has Thomas's surname as Hardy!:
Thomas James Hardy in the Liverpool, England, Catholic Baptisms, 1741-1919 Name Thomas James Hardy [Harvey] Age 0 Birth Date 14 Oct 1873 Baptism Date 2 Nov 1873 Baptism Place St Vincent de Paul, Liverpool, Lancashire, England Father Jacobi Hardy Mother Alicia Morris
Birth of his sister Alice (in the censuses you mention):
HARVEY, ALICE RACHEL mmn MORRIS GRO Reference: 1876 M Quarter in WEST DERBY & TOXTETH PARK Volume 08B Page 264
His older sister Eliza[beth] ?
MORRIS, ELIZABETH - GRO Reference: 1872 M Quarter in WEST DERBY AND TOXTETH PARK Volume 08B Page 255
Is this your Thomas's marriage - with father Nicholas James - unless that's another mistake??

However, I don't see James's marriage to Alice. Perhaps he wasn't married.
Alice probably died in 1881. I don't see a marriage to Johanna either - his "wife" in 1891 census.

Thank you
No, I have found nothing before the birth of Thomas in 1873 :-(

Have you looked for the Mrchant Navy records - possiby also on Family Search. FMP have the MN records from the National Archives.
Guernsey records are not always the easist and FS is probably the best place. HAve you found James on the 1861 census? Harvey is not a particularly Guernsey surname and it is possible that his father was a sailor or a soldier.
Added: a tree on Ancestry has James as Nicholas James Harvey - wife Alice Fearon). There is a marriage oin 1892 of Thomas James Harvey the father is named as Nicholas James Harvey a Dockk labourer. The address for Thomas, a sailor, is 101 Beaufort St.

Hello Looking to follow my Harvey line. Thomas was born 14th Oct 1873 in Toxteth Park. His parents on the birth certificate found on Ancestry were James Harvey ( Seaman Merchant Service) and Alice Harvey formerly Morrow or Horrow?? living at 13 Pleasant Hill Street, Toxteth Park.
The 1881 census states James to be a British Subject born Guernsey abt 1852 and Alice born in Liverpool.
The 1891 census states James was born in Southampton.
I am unsure where to go from here as I am unable to find a marriage or find a birth for James. I have looked on familysearch for this.
Thank you
