    Relationshipwith Teresa Ann GOATHAM
    Born Abt 1838  East Prawle, Chivelstone, Devon, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • Shown as aged 3 in the 1841 census.
      Shown variously as born in Prawl or Chivelstone, which suggests to me that the birth was in East Prawle which is in the parish of Chivelstone. The family's abode being shown as Prawl at the time of his baptism seems to confirm this.
      There is a smaller West Prawle, as well as Prawle Point, so the whole area may have been referred to as Prawle and Thomas may not have been born in the hamlet.
