Hi, I wonder if anyone can help please?

I'm interested in further tracing the Thomas Thwaite (my 4th great grandfather) who married Mary Younghusband in 1809.

I notice he appears in a number of other family trees where he is usually shown as born in 1790, the son of Robert Thwaite and Eleanor Skilbeck. However, in checking another site which covers the church records for Crosthwaite, it shows no less than THREE Thomas Thwaite's being christened there in 1790:
(1) 3 Jan 1790, to Thomas Thwaite and Mary Skilbeck
(2) 14 March 1790, to Robert Thwaite and Eleanor Skilbeck
(3) 28 July 1790, to Abraham Thwaite and Sarah Robinson

As I've indicated, Robert and Eleanor seem to be the preferred link but can anyone throw any further light on how they've established this is the correct line?

Thanks in advance
