Eliza Broom and John and Eliza Hale
« on: Wednesday 09 March 11 18:16 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone have any information about a William and Eliza Broom?  I  found them on the 1861 and 1871 Census living in Corn Street in Witney.  He was a chimney sweep.

 Eliza Broom was my great great grandmother.  On the census they have a John and Eliza Hale living with them and I am sure these were the children from her previous marriage to John Hale (senior).

I have a copy of the marriage certificate of the daughter Eliza (my great grandmother) - she married a Charles Mansell in 1876.  John Hale senior was shown as deceased on this document.  He was a French Polisher by trade.

I cannot find any information on the senior Eliza.  I am looking for her parents!  Can anyone help - please!

Hello Alice  :)

I found the marriage of Eliza Hale and William Broom in 1861 (Mar Q)
Witney volume 3a page 735

This marriage certificate should provide details of Eliza's Father.

Kind regards
Morgan

Hello Morgan

Thank you so much for the information on Eliza and William.  I shall send for the marriage certificate.  This could be really helpful in tracking down the rest of the family!

Regards
Alice
