Are they really Trindles?  Perhaps not.  They are listed together leading one to think they are related, the rest of the listings are not in any kind of alphabetical order which is sometimes the case.

In either case they are not found in the 1911 or 1891 census with a spelling similar to Trindle.  Clues are welcome.
