 ;D  That's a fairly random question??

Do you mean historically, currently, give us a clue  :)

Best is to Google, no thing can hide on the net!

i wish i knew more to give anyone clues...if i did i wouldnt be here.... :)

All the information i have is what my uncle spoke about and we remembered...My great grand dad has supposed to have studied in a dumbarton school of marine engineering....

Im all the way in India so I have no clue...Tried googling it and found nothing as far as i can tell (unless my search was wrong)...

Been trying 7 yrs to trace my roots and after a point of time u just loose hope.... :(

Dumbarton - Scotland isnt it? MAybe they came from Scotland which would explain why no one found anything in England!
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

This is an entry from the British Library India Office website showing that Danvers Harrington Trott's father James Harrington Trott was a 36 year old widower when he married his 19 year old 2nd wife Blanche Louisa Gomez in 1891.

James Harrington Trott was born therefore about 1855 and that would make it highly likely that he was a younger child of James Henry Trott and Margaret Harington who married in 1841.

Familysearch has a James Trott bp in 1815 son of a Robert Trott.

My own interest is in the Har(r)ington surname which is how I came  upon your enties.

There's also a Dunbarton in South Africa and from this rootsweb email evidence that there were Trotts in SA at the beginning of the 20th century including a James Harrington Trott  (Danvers father). Maybe Danvers studied in Dunbarton SA (not Scotland) before returning to India.

The South African Archives have just come on-line, wonderful for all genealogists with a South African or two in their Tree. We always thought we were pretty much the first Trott family here, but to our surprise we have found:

JAMES HARINGTON TROTT applying for an appointment in 1893.

TROTT BROTHERS in various legal cases in 1901 and 1904.

ROBERT TROTT taking out a mortgage in 1902.

J. TROTT, a Constable, being transferred in 1903.

H. RIX-TROTT an Acting District Inspector of Public Works in 1904.

CHARLES ALBERT TROTT and ROBERT TROTT with a mortgage bond in 1904.

More about H. RIX-TROTT in 1904.

J. TROTT resigning (Constable) 1905.

CHARLES ALBERT TROTT v. ROBERT TROTT 1905.

W.C. TROTT applying for an appointment in the Cape Mounted Rifles, 1907.

Correspondence with R. TROTT on stock diseases 1911.

Liquidation and Distribution of SARAH BRADSHAW, born TROTT 1911.

Immigration papers PE TROTT and CHILDREN 1949.

If any of you recognize any of these names, the url is http://www.national.archsrch.gov.za/sm300cv/smws/sm300cd?OFDD4884

Go well! Ivy Trott in Clovelly, near Cape Town, South Africa.
