GD website has person record for J B Trotter but the first 3 entries above have not been coded to him and should be. The Trotters were from Downpatrick like the Hawthorns (if these Hawthorns were indeed the family of Steele Hawthorn, which I haven't proven) but J B Trotter's older brother had changed his name to Ruthven and his younger brother had just died at Buenos Aires (see Dictionary of Irish Biography). So not yet identified Capt & Mrs Trotter
