  Father	Thomas LIGHT,   b. Abt 1804, Modbury, Devon, England ,   d. Aft 1861  (Age ~ 58 years)
  Mother	Elizabeth BAILEY,   b. 1806, Kingsteignton, Devon, England ,   d. Sep Q 1856, Newton Abbot Reg Dist, Devon, England  (Age 50 years)
  Marriage License	30 Sep 1830
  	Licence for marriage in Kingsteignton
  Married	9 Oct 1831	St. Michael’s Church, Kingsteignton, Devon, England
  	Thomas seems to have been reluctant to marry Elizabeth. He was believed to be the father of her son Henry, yet he didn't marry her before or soon after the birth. In September 1830 he obtained a marriage licence, but in 1831 there was a complaint about his refusal to pay for Henry's mainteance, and it was not until October that year that they married. Maybe he and Elizabeth had been courting but he did not believe Henry wast his son, hence the reluctance.
