Hi Elizabeth

I think this is about Nova Scotia, so I'd like to help. But your post is a bit hard to follow -- what connection are you seeking exactly? Who is the Mary Canon you refer to? You may get more traction if you could add more details, locations, and sources to your profiles.

Are these 2 Thomas Miller profiles meant to be the same person? (They are both currently indicated to be married to the same woman.) If so, they should be merged.

the Thomas miller that is mine is not in Nova Scotia 23753 is not the same as 74651 is in my family the father of my great grand mother

The marriage record linked in the profile of Elizabeth (Miller) Alderdice (abt. 1850 - 1912) indicates that her father's name was Robert, not Thomas. 

My great grand mother's father was Thomas it has always been Thomas her number is 73569 you may have the wrong one
74659 is Thomas Miller

Okay fair enough. This place and time are not my expertise so I probably can't be of any help. But since this marriage record ( https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1873/11283/8139454.pdf ) for William Alderice and Elizabeth Miller says otherwise, I would suggest adding some research notes or sources that demonstrate Elizabeth's father was named Thomas.

there are quite a lot of people with the Alderdice name in  Ireland   and one of my great uncles married an Alderdice so there could be your problem he moved to Canada
giving up with my family too many people giving me different things about them getting me confused may end up deleting the lot
