Hard to say as there are a number of Richard Thomas' on the 1841 reg, not with wife Jane, but could have remarried. One in Toxteth born out of county so 'could' be the one given the marriage place for Thomas?

Are there any relatives aside from children on any later census with Thomas and Martha? or witness on marriage cert that might be a clue?

That 1861 is for THOMAS - not Richard.

When Thomas married, he was Labourer
