The following from 'Roll of Honour to Victims of Mining & Quarry accidents in the Forest of Dean'.

Surname: Timbrell
Forenam: Thomas
Date: 21/02/1913
Age: 17
Occupation: Labourer
Mine: Wallsend
Cause: Deceased was assisting to move an electric motor on a tram up an inclined road. The rails on which the tram was were loose at one end and one of them was 3 inches higher than the other. As he was passing the tram on the lower side the motor fell over upon him and then into a culvert. He also fell into the culvert and was so severely injured internally that he died very shortly afterwards. The condition of the tram road and the neglect to properly secure the motor upon the tram reflected very seriously upon the persons in charge of the operations.

seems a good fit with :-

1901 Yorkley
Maurice Prout abt 1860 West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Head West Dean, Monmouthshire
Elizabeth Prout abt 1861 West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Wife West Dean, Monmouthshire
Harry Prout abt 1881 West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Son West Dean, Monmouthshire
James Prout abt 1882 Rugeley, Staffordshire, England Son West Dean, Monmouthshire
Thomas Timbrell abt 1896 Bristol Visitor West Dean, Monmouthshire
William Timbrell abt 1898 West Dean, Gloucestershire, England Visitor West Dean, Monmouthshire
James Tudor abt 1823 Slimbridge, Gloucestershire, England Father-in-law West Dean, Monmouthshire

now is it too much to suspect a link to Elizabeth ??
