  1. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset. There was a Charles ROLLES, Grandson, aged 12 a Plough boy born Bere Regis with the family, as Charlotte was at home and not married and this is the only female on the Chart I assume that there are more children who do not appear on the 1841 Census.
    1861 3 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset
    IGI Baptisms (4 other children with Christopher as father in same batch and period, but no mother mentioned)
  2. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset. Lodging with Harriet and family.
    1861 3 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset. With Mary was Dinah GALE, sister aged 71 born Bere Regis, a, Ag Lab widow, Harriet CAKE, daughter a widow aged 51 an Ag Lab widow, and Caroline CAKE Granddaughter aged 21 born Tonerspuddle?, Dorset, a Domestic, Servant unemployed
  3. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Tonerspuddle, Dorset indexed as Chistover
  4. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Northport?. Morden, Dorset
    1861 25 Shitterton Hamlet, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset.  There is a Harriet CAKE down as daughter with her mother, as I have found a marriage in June quarter of 1841 I think that this is this Harriet, there was also with them a Caroline CAKE Granddaughter aged 21 born Tonerspuddle?, Dorset, a Domestic, Servant unemployed and a  Dinah GALE, sister aged 71 born Bere Regis, a, Ag Lab widow
    1881 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset 
    1891 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset. Living with them was grandson Arthur TOMS (4) born Bere Regis, Dorset 
    1901 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset
    IGI Baptism 
  5. 1841 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Shitterton, Bere Regis. Dorset
    1861 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 22 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1881 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    There is a marriage in the September quarter of 1844 of a Thomas TOMS to a Eliza Edith SHEPPARD, which I think might be the right marriage. Thomas's brother Christopher married a Caroline SHEPPARD in the Blandford district in 1843. I would think they were related.
  6. 1841 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Northport, Morden, Dorset. Lodging with Harriett and Family.
    1861 3 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 South Brook, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1881 South Brook, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1891 Southbrook, Bere Regis, Dorset as as widower
    1901 South Brook, Bere Regis, Dorset as a widower
  7. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1861 8 Warren, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 Brick Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1881 Bryants Puddle, Affpuddle, Dorset
    1891 Briantspuddle, Dorset
    1901 Bryantspuddle, Dorset
  8.  
  9. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1861 Shitterton Hamlet, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1891 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Dorset as a widow
  10. 1841 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1851 Shitterton, Bere Regis, Dorset
    1861 12 Shitterton Hamlet, Bere Regis, Dorset, RG9/1347 Folio 41 page 26. The information for Caroline is an interesting find. The Head of the household is a Jacob TOMS. Jacob (28) unmarried Ag Lab born Bere Regis, Dorset. Caroline LANGDOWN (29) was born Bere Regis, Dorset but there is no relationship to Jacob shown. There appears to have been something in the relationship box but it no longer appears there. Caroline has an occupation which could not be made out; was it House Keeper"? Except there are only one or two letters before the word "house", She has two daughters, Mary (4) and Ellen (2) both born in Bere Regis, Dorset
    1871 Rye Hill, Bere Regis, Wareham, Dorset. The information on this census is even more intriguing as there is still no sign of her husband Richard, but the family has enlarged. Jacob TOMS (39) Ag Lab is still the head. The rest of the family are all entered as Boarders Caroline LANGDOWN (38) Housekeeper born Bere Regis, Dorset, Mary LANGDOWN (14) Scholar born Wareham, Dorset, Ellen LANGDOWN (11) Scholar born Wareham, Dorset, John (8), Alice (6), Susan (4) all Scholars and George (1) all born Bere Regis, Dorset
    1881 Butt Lane, Bere Regis, Dorset. Again, the mystery deepens! Caroline is the Head , shown as married. Her occupation was entered as "Wife of Ag Lab" but this has been crossed through. Her age is shown as 49 and with her are Ellen (21),a Domestic Servant, George (11) a Scholar, Jane LANGDOWN (1) daughter (but is Ellen's daughter), born Bere Regis, Dorset and. "wait for it". Boarder Jacob TOMS, unmarried (48) and still an Ag Lab. Another Boarder was Charlotte KEMPSFORD (25) unmarried Domestic Servant born Chilnote, Dorset
    1891 "Stockley", Bere Regis, Dorset.  Caroline LANGDOWN is now a Charwoman (59), living with her were granddaughter Jane LANGDOWN (11) born Bere Regis, Dorset, grandson Sydney BAKER (1) grandson born Bere  Regis, Dorset and, of course, Lodger Jacob TOMS (57) Farm Labourer.
    1901 Butt Lane, Bere Regis, Dorset as a widower. It would appear that Caroline had died (she had) and it is assumed that Ellen LANGDOWN  married an Esau BAKER as the family living at this address are Esau BAKER (48) Labourer on Farm born Chiselbourne, Dorset, Ellen BAKER (40) wife born Bere Regis, Dorset, Jessie BAKER (14), Sydney BAKER (11), Charles (10) and Harold (3) all born Bere Regis, Dorset. Also at this address is Jacob TOMS, (6) father-in-law, widower, Estate Labourer. It would seem, perhaps, that the children, although named LANGDOWN, Caroline's husband's name, were actually the children of Jacob TOMS who she did not marry until just before she died; this was because Richard LANGDOWN died not die until 1893.
  11. 1841 Bere Regis, Dorset

    I feel there are more children before Christopher born 1818,. Firstly there is a Grandchild on the 1851 Census, secondly I have joined three of the TOMS that was had on various charts by putting this Chart on. However there is an Annie TOMS born 1838 who at present I have not been able to join in. On the 1841 there is a John TOMS born about1811, Living in Bere Regis who is married to an Anne and has four children one of whom is an Anne TOMS born 1838. At present I cannot prove that John was a child of the family above.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
