I had actally seen this but couln't fit it together with the information I had. Obviouslly Ann Taylor was his sister but the earlier census returns were needed to make sense of it.  Thanks again.

At least one of my Trim's are amongst those, but did you notice in the baptisms there were 2 James' born a year apart, so I assume that the first James must have died very soon after being baptised.

Hi Alli,
I've just received the marriage cert. for Arthur Trim, if you're interested.  His father was George, a yeoman. Elizabeth Young's father was Thomas, a farmer, and they both resided in Gillingham.  The witnesses were Thomas Henry Young and Martha Jane Young.  At the moment I'm assuming that both are her parents. The marriage took place in the parish of Gillingham on 7 June 1855.
