Although Fowey is nearer to Lanteglos than Lansallos as the crow flies the journey to Fowey involves either a ferry across the River Fowey or a long detour via Lostwithiel. Thus it is considered more likely that he was born in Lansallos. If this is the case he would have been just 19 years old when he married, whereas had he been born in Fowey he would have only been 17¼.
Thus the Lansallos baptism has been selected as being the more likely. As his parents names are recorded in the Baptismal Register it is assumed that they were present.

It is known from the baptismal record of their daughter Mary Wise on the 7 Dec 1766 in the parish of Lanteglos by Fowey that her parents were Thomas and Jane Wise, but the transcript of the register entry does not give Jane's surname. There are two marriages on the LDS website for Thomas Wise and a Jane in 1765 but the other was in the parish of Lansallos which is in S-E Cornwall so the marriage in Lanteglos by Fowey is considered the most likely.
Despite an extensive search of parish records no record of a burial for||could be found.
