Death of Father11 August 1903 His father Robert Clifton died on 11 August 1903 at R.D. Basford.10,11 
Had a Daughter19 April 1905 His daughter Dorothy Clifton was born on 19 April 1905 at Derby, DBY.12,1,13 
Researchbetween 1911 and 1921 Research:After 1911, Thomas is not found with his wife (and no longer lives in her parents house with them).
In 1921 he is with a new younger "wife", Dorothea. She comes into his life between 1911 and 1921.
Though she is stated as a "wife" she informed the census, however, I can find no formal marriage until after Elizabeth Ann has died.
In 1939 Thomas and Dorothea his new lady friend are living apart due to war work.
There is an appropriate marriage in 1954 as soon as Elizabeth Ann has passed.
Thomas is not buried with his first wife (she is buried in Eastwood cenetery with her parents).
Both Thomas and new wife are scattered in Wilford Hill. 
(Enum alone) Cen-Househ*2 April 1911 The 1911 UK Census of 118 Nottingham Road, Eastwood, NTT, listed Thomas Clifton described as both were in the household of Elisha (60) & Fanny (57) Hopkin, Thomas' parents-in-law. Elisha was a house agent, on own account, born in Eastwood. Their details were as follows - Thomas Clifton, son-in-law, age 33 married 8 years, 1 child, living, railway clerk, born Greasley, NTT, Elizabeth Ann Clifton age 36, born Eastwood, NTT with their daughter, Dorothy Clifton age 5, born Derbyshire, Derby. The house had 7 rooms.12 
(Head) Cen-Househ19 June 1921 He was head of the household in the 1921 UK Census of 15 Church Street, New Lenton, NTT, as Thomas Clifton, head age 43, male, married, born Greasley, NTT assistant accountant locomotive department for Midland Railway Company, Midland Railway Derby. He was enumerated with his wife Dorothea Hayes. The house had 6 rooms. Completed by D. Clifton. This liaison may have been a little "awkward" as Thomas' previous wife (she still stated she was married) still alive and living in Greasley ... only married after she had died.14 
(Present-Main-Alone) Cen-Househ*29 September 1939 He was listed at the top of the household in the 1939 UK Register of 34 King Henry's Road, Hampstead, LND, described as Clifton, Thomas, male, born 17 Jun 1881 (corrected to 1877), married, A.E.C. Air Ministry (APA 26 10 45), living in lodgings with Police Inspector & Chauffeur..15 
Marriage*between 1 October 1954 and 31 December 1954 Thomas Clifton married Dorothea Hayes between 1 October 1954 and 31 December 1954 at R.D. Paddington. 
(Widow(er)) Death13 December 1954 Thomas Clifton became a widower when his wife Elizabeth died on 13 December 1954.16 
(Spouse of deceased) Prob Index18 April 1955 Thomas Clifton was named as the husband of Elizabeth Ann Hopkins (deceased) on 18 April 1955 at The Probate Office, Nottingham.16 
Research*28 August 1961 Research:There is another probate and death in 1961 (in exactly the right R.D.) of as Thomas age 84 - i.e the right age. However, the Thomas Probate of 1961 does not name a "Dorothea"
as an administrator, but two other Clifton males, who (FreeBMD) have the mother "King" - so unlikely to be him.

If I went by GRO references only, I would have got the wrong one.16,1,10 
(Deceased) DC-Reg*between 1 April 1965 and 30 June 1965  His death was registered between 1 April 1965 and 30 June 1965 at R.D. Nottingham

(Deceased) Prob Index*2 June 1965  In the Probate Index, the deceased was described as Clifton, Thomas of 142A Edwards Lane Sherwood Nottingham died 14 April 1965 at Basford Hospital Hucknall Road Nottingham. Authority to administer the Estate was granted to Dorothea Hayes described as Dorothea Clifton, widow. on 2 June 1965 by The Probate Office, Nottingham. Estate valued at £618. (Note that Dorothea is Thomas' latest wife and not his daughter Dorothea Alcock).16 
ResearchApril 2965 Research:Not 100% sure this is the right guy unless he married a Dorothea after his original wife died (only one possibility in FreeBMD in Paddington Dec 1954).

Our Thomas had daughter Dorothy Allcock (name she was buried under), so unusual that she would be called Dorothea Clifton.
