Hi Warren,

Looks like you are really getting stuck in to this. As you say this Dorset family may well be Thomas and Mary COOMBS, but is he your Thomas. I note Mary is a farmer on the census.  :-\

Here are the Dorset baptisms I have found listed to Thomas and Mary, unfortunately nothing late enough to provide an occupation for Thomas. I note Mary aged 25 on the census so there is a chance of others and perhaps there being a baptism for Mary after the forms arrive in 1813 which will then provide an occupation for Thomas. We also have Eliza from the burial records but looks like she was born 1812 so will probably just miss the forms. We have 6 baptisms listed in a little over 8 years.

Thomas 20 Sep 1801 Tincleton
Jane 25 Dec 1802 Tincleton
John 8 May 1804 Tincleton
Charles 26 June 1805 Tincleton
John 30 Jan 1807 Tincleton
Harry 11 Jan 1809 Tincleton

Cheers Kris  :)

Warren,

I am just wondering where you managed to get Martha's name? I have not found it anywhere. (Apart from you listing it as Alton) Guessing it is perhaps from Davids Victorian death certificate. Just been having another look to see if I could spot anything.

As to the prison records for James. I am afraid that is all I found. Just the Wiltshire Quarter Sessions index entry. I suggest you place a separate request for this. Hope someone is able to help.

There does appear to be a Naval Record for a James RODWELL born Wiltshire (aged 21 in 1845)

Hi Kris  8)

That's unfortunate (above). Now, Mary Rodwell (nee German) from Dorset can be excluded from further research regarding  the other Thomas Rodwell (B:1778 Salisbury Wiltshire).

On a separate note ...


Hi Warren,

" ...  There is a Pallots entry for
Thomas RODWELL = Mary COOMBS 1797 Salisbury St Edmund (May connect)

Hopefully somebody will able to help further with Salisbury Records. I have not been able to find a marriage for either Thomas or his father Samuel ..."

Cheers Kris


The above marriage still merits consideration ....
1797: Thomas RODWELL & Mary COOMBS St Edmunds Salisbury Wiltshire

The mystery is what became of Mary Rodwell (nee Coombs) because Martha Rodwell (nee Alton or Elton) is shown as the mother of Thomas Rodwell's children born from about 1817 onwards.


Cheers
Warren

Hi Kris,

Another researcher previously sent me a copy of a document which appeared to her to be a church record of the Descendants of Thomas Rodwell. Thomas & Martha (husband & wife) are included; as too are their son David (B:1819 Salisbury Wiltshire), his wife Rosina Hammond, and their three sons (born in Tasmania & Victoria).

If so desired, I could forward a copy of this document by email to you. It's a bit hard to reproduce in this thread / forum. Martha is shown as Elton or Alton. I can't remember why I chose Alton. Maybe I found something online.

Cheers
Warren   :o

Hi Kris,

That's a possibility, and could account for him vanishing from English records.
