sorry, I missed the later postings. Choccy I don't think either of these marriage are my Thomas Troke. Most of his male rellies seemed to work in the tin industry and there are several Thomases in the family. Thomas was definitely with a Jane in 1871 and that is the name on the childrens' birth certificates - the problem is that on each of the 3 certificates her name is different, DIXON, DICKSON and DICKINSON. Without her father's name I have no idea how to progress with her ancestors. Jayne

Just to let you know I have just ordered Jane's death certificate. I don't suppose it will add any useful info but any concrete evidence for this family is welcome! Thanks for finding the ref. for me Michelle. Jayne
