I'm trying to sort out a 'Bill' Trout and' Irene' Trout.
I think they were actually William Charles and a Florenece L I Trout that married in St Thomas, Devon. 1927
I have most on Bill, born 1902 Topsham Devon. (Parents Ada and William Charles Trout), Topsham Devon.
Can anybody help me by seeing an Irene Trout born about 1905 on the 1911 somewhere in Topsham, Devon? She had a sister supposedly called Doris.
Doris married a Bill Newman. - but as things are going she's probably not called Doris!

I can go to the Library on Saturday if not -but its shut tomorrow :-( -my day off!
