  • Notes 
    • Arthur Thomas is not on the 1911 census with his wife and children, though was seemingly still alive as Elizabeth was described as married rather than widowed. We cannot be sure that Arthur was from the area, but Thomas is a local surname and there is an Arthur Thomas otherwise unaccounted for of the right age.

      There are only three births of an Arthur Thomas in the Lymington or New Forest registration districts between 1850 and 1890. The first was an Arthur born in 1863 in Buckler's Hard in Beaulieu parish, son of John and Mary; he can be found on the 1911 census in Exbury married to a Jane. The second was an Arthur born in 1876 in Buckler's Hard, son of William and Ellen; he can be found on the 1911 census lodging in Pennington, shown as married but without a wife present. The third was an Arthur John born in 1884 Wootton in Milton parish, and living in Brockenhurst in 1891; he can be found on the 1911 census in Crofton in Titchfield parish, unmarried, and living with his brother Christopher. It seems pretty clear the second Arthur is the missing husband of Elizabeth Collins.
