No, Thomas didn't come from Dorset, he was born in Exeter, Devon and according to census records his wife was born in Liverpool. I can't find a marriage record for him and his wife Jane - think they probably weren't married. Jane was probably illiterate and signed her childrens' birth registrations with a cross. Her maiden name was give as 1. DIXON, 2. DICKSON and 3. DICKINSON. There is nothing straight forward about this family

ALFRED GARNET TROKE was the ancestor born in Paris and the date was 1883. Sorry about the confusion - this was my husband trying to be helpful and solve a long standing brick wall. Bless him!

right - back to the census - by the way that record for Alfred Garnet Troke is the correct one - 1833 - so he married Annie Hutton
