Emma,

I don't see a birth for him. Where was he born? There's a Thomas Oliver C R Masser born Essex.

He must be Thomas Oliver Charles R then. Just trying to figure out the initials for electoral roll lookups.

Seems like he was just Thomas Wells on the electoral roll when he was living with Thomasina and Douglas.

Any chance you could contact the neighbours to see where they moved?
