I wonder if anyone can help with a problem.
Eliza Broadbent was born 22.05.1842 in Stalybridge to George Broadbent and Ellen Welsh.
She married my great grandfather Joe Harrop on 21.07 1868 in Ashton under Lyne and was described on the marriage certificate as a widow. In the 1861 census, she is single and living at home, so must have married the first time between 1861 and 1866.
Unfortunately, I have been unable to find any details of a previous marriage for this Eliza during those 5 years. There are others, but not with a ftaher george.
If anyone can throw any light on who she might have married, I would be very grateful.
Many thanks.
