Census 1861
Thomas as above
Ann age 31 B 1830 Froyle Hampshire

Other 3 children plus
Charles Trimming Son in law age 12 b 1849 Southampton
Assume Ann was married to a Mr trimming but can't find or where Charles is related

census 1871
Thomas as above
Anne wife 46 b 1825 Hampshire Charles trimming is now a son b hampshire
? is this the same Anne
Rhoda is not there
plus 3 children

I am sorry is is a lot of questions but was he just living with these ladies? their names are very similar!! Am I looking at 3 or 4 wives and their children?

Anne/Ann/Hannah can be the same person. Often ages can vary up to five years for the same person.

Have you tried look up the FreeBDM for their marriages?

You can kindly ask someone to look up those records and see if Thomas has the same occupation. That's a start to know if he is the same person.

Did Rhoda have the same age each time? How old was she in 1841? By 1861 she may have married.

Should be 1851 and 1871

What a wonderful lot you are, there was I thinking he was a bigamist ! He Just liked the name

So he married Hannah Taylor in 1846 and they had a daughter Rhoda in 1851
She died in 1855 and he married Anne Trimming in 1857She has a son Charles

Ginny
I also like this one . I was wondering if Charles trimming was illegitimate as Anne came from Foyle and returned to live with Thomas in Foyle. I thought perhaps she might have been sent away to have her baby and he was maybe raised by a relation until her marriage in 1857

The details from Familysearch are a little cofusing because the later children will have the mother's name as Ann but they have all been classed as Hannah as Ann and Hannah were often used as the same name.

Georgina's mother's name is Ann.
