just to echo suzards remarks the only robert marke i can see in pitminster is the son of john and mary but he was born in 1817 and not in pitminster.
also had a look for birth in somerset between 1857-1865. nothing came up.

there is one born 1860 but that is in middlesex.

Hi

Where did you get Pitminster from as his birthplace as it's a long way from Middlesex.  Also - where did you get his birthyear from

It's very easy to go down the wrong path unless all info is available.

There is this 1881 entry but his birthyear was 1849. All were b Pitminster except Dunham

John Marke 61  Tanner
Robert   32  Ironmonger
Anne   22 
William 19
Theophilus J 15
Robert T. Dunham 5  b Ryme

a lady who is also researching marke said my markes were from pitminster. The robert marke im researching is listed in 1891, and 1901 census , b 1861, married to alice gauchey, and they had 4 children. I did not find where robert was born....kind regards....lesley
