Hello again!
found him.
Thomas Edward Smith (Tom) b1860 in west Dean where he appears in the 1861,1871,1881, 1891 census for the area. married Mary Fox Corin in Feb 1892 at Coleford' then still in West dean for the 1901 census.I can now concentrate on HIS parents.....possibly EDWARD 1820 and ELIZABETH 1832 of Coalway lane end West Dean.
Birth certificates are so much help with such a common name aren't they?
Thanks very much for your assistance
