Hi
If you know where and when they married the obvious thing is to look at the marriage details to get Eliza's maiden name.  If you do not want to pay for the certificate you can order the Chatham parish film from the LDS and search that.    LDS centres are worldwide and listed onwww.family.search.org
Another route is to get a birth certificate for a child.  That will give the maiden name too.
You can search BMDs free on ancestry.co.uk at the moment.  Choose the Beta option.
Have fun!

Hi Andrea

I have looked up the first Birth which was in Scotland, they give all the details, but not readable. I will have to order the certificate.

I was hoping for some relation to come forward as well.
thank you for your help.
