Hi

I don't have too much that is 'reliable'. Her age varies on Censusses, but 2 do imply 1822/23 and her headstone shows 1822. Place of birth was shown as Denbighshire or Wrexham.
She married in Manchester in 1840, at a Reg Office. Age shown as 'Full', although I suspect she may have lied. Father was Edward, a bookkeeper and mother, I think, was Mary.

Maybe not.

I don't think it's that straightforward.

Trying to find some siblings,to give some clues.

Having found the grave of Elizabeth's parents, I suspect she had a brother Edward.

Censusses show him as being born Ruabon abt 1810/1812.

Other entries related to him always refer to Ruabon.

Can anyone match him to a baptism with parents Edward, possibly a Bookkeeper and Mary?
