Hello,Chris,

Unless you can name a district for this birth lookup, it could prove difficult.   Over the period 1871 - 1878 there are about 7 Civil Reg birth entries for an Elizabeth Marchant in the London area & then it is not possible to find out from these entries the names of the parents, the certificates have to be purchsed to be able to do that.

Likewise I could not identify a John Marchant with a wife Eliza & dau. Elizabeth in the 1881 or 1891 whichh would have helped with finding out where dau. Elizabeth. was born.

Also there is no entry in the IGI for an Elizabeth Marchant baptism circa 1875 nor a marriage for John Marchant/Eliza Poulter.

Sorry I could not be of more help.

Hello
Thanks Meliora for your help.

The only other details I have are from a marriage cert of Elizabeth Marchant and George FIELDHOUSE in Aust (Annandale, NSW)in July 1895.  It shows her age as 20, born in London, and at the time of her marriage in Aust, her father John Marchant was deceased. 
I do know that she had siblings. 
I would also like to find out when she came to Aust.
Nothing much to work on, sorry.
Cheers, Chris
