Daughter's name ** Completed
« on: Tuesday 26 May 15 21:18 BST (UK) »
Ancestry has the daughter's name transcribed as Zebeath.

Can anyone see a more 'common' name, please? To date I've found no one by that name in the line


Surname is Choppin

Thanks

*** Edit - they did have a daughter Elizabeth but I can't see that here

Do you know if the parents had a broken English accent  ???

It could be Elsbeth in a broken accent whereby the "beth" sounds like "beath" & "s" like a "z"

Best I can come up with  ::)

Thank you all.

Trouble is Rebecca, Deborah and Elizabeth are all names often used by the family line.

They were also Quakers, but I am not sure if that has any relevance.

I agree with sugarbakers. It is definitely written Rebeakh.

Was she born in 1692?  Familysearch has a Calbrath

Taking that name and looking at the image, I'm 40% sure there's something of a vague match in there.... if you squint.
