Burial lookup request-COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 15 November 08 17:53 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
can someone find this woman for me?
She was probably buried in either Deeping St James or Deeping Fen.

Elizabeth SMITH-wife/widow of David Smith.

Her husband died in 1801 and was buried in Deeping St James but I don't know if she died before or after him.
As for her age she was baptised in 1767 but there is a suspicion she may have been born around 1758(but this is only a suspicion not a fact like the baptism).So her age at her her husbands death ,if she lived that long would be either c 34 or c 43..

Many thanks,
Trisha  ;D ;D ;D

The National Burial Index has the following burials at Deeping St James:

Elizabeth SMITH, 15 September 1832, aged 70
Elizabeth SMITH, 4 April 1848, aged 88

I can't see anything before 1826.
