Here is the 1871 Census for Thmas Dixon and family in Froyle, Hants (RG10/1228/10)
Can anyone read Mary Ann's surname?
Many thanks

Newster you beat me to it.
Just went to FindMyPast and they have it as Trimmer and the capital letter does match that of Thomas further up the page.

seemed the obvious route to go - given that the original writing was so indeterminate !
Hardly Ancestry's fault !
;)

No for once I have to agree ;D ;)
I wonder if the enumerator became a doctor ::) ::)

The marriages for Froyle are online and the marriage between Mary Ann Dixon and George Trimmer has been transcribed as 31 Aug 1861.

Back again - what a queue!
And gosh it's all been sorted!
I have found the Froyle transcriptions, but was not at all sure about Trimmer. But clearly it is.
Many thanks, Newfster, Kerry and Elizabeth. :)
