I am trying to trace any relatives of Seth Thompson who was my great grandfather, I know he married a Mary Wadman in Shaftesbury and then moved to Portland, Dorset.

Seth had (I think) 10 brothers in sisters but I have not been able to find any records about them, who they married or where they lived.

Some of the names included were:-

Martha, George, Mary, Bessie, Edith, Eliza, Frank, William,Jane

parents names were Henry and Elizabeth on the 1881 census they are shown be living at Elm Hil, Motcombe Dorset and Henry the father is shown to be 38 yrs old.

Can anyone help?
