Hi Theresa

I've had a look on the 1851 Dorset census. In Stratton there are two Fox families.  The only possible promising family is -

Philip Fox Head 61 Farm Labourer Born Bere Regis, Dorset
Sarah Fox Wife 63 Born Leigh, Dorset - (She was blind)
William Fox Son 21 Farm Labourer Born Stretton
Martha Harlick Neice 10 Born Wool, Dorset

If this is of interest, I could send you a copy of the image off-line

The 1831 census didn't have names on it and I don't have the other censuses. Perhaps someone else can help with Frederick Issacs

Hope this helps

Angela
