Hi yogibear,

Do you have a copy of the birth certificate, which will give you the names of his parents?  Might be easier to find him using those.

Hi yogibear,

There's a 9 year old Philip Trant on 1901 census in Brixham; could that be him?

I'd go with that too - the BMD Index is June 1891, so missed the census


1901 - RG13/2066; Folio: 108; Page: 32 - Brixham

The Philip Trant on the 1901 census was my great uncle. My Grandfather was William Cove Trant and another of his brothers (Alf) had a hardware/chandlery on Brixham Harbour front. I think it is now an amusement arcade!
