Thanks Mike - I couldn't read it not knowing the area.

I can't see an 1861 entry so wondered whether Elizabeth re-married.  Unfortunately - there are a lot of Elizabeth Ward marriages in the Loughborough RD between 1851-1861

Found this baptism but it was 1849

Snap !!......
 
I found the same one too. …….

St Bartoph Parish Church.
Shepshed.
1849. 1st April.
Henry. Son of JOHN & Elizabeth Ward.

Maybe Henry was 4 years old at the Baptism ?

Wow that was quick! Thank you.  I also found Henry Ward on family search. It's Elizabeth I'm really interested, in and was rather hoping her place of birth was Shepshed as there is a parish baptism entry in Shepshed for Elizabeth Ward a married woman aged 25, daughter of George and Ann Bennett.

In the same parish there is a burial for a Elizabeth Ward on 17 Sept 1851 aged 26.
