What was Elizabeth Wilkinson's maiden name
« on: Sunday 07 October 18 06:53 BST (UK) »
Elizabeth & Samuel WILKINSON, a Post Boy in the 1851 census, were living at Ealing, Brentford, Middlesex.

Samuel was said to be born in 1807 Dartford Kent.  Elizabeth 1815 Harrold, Middlesex. HO107/1699/176 p 44

In the 1851 census Samuel [44] & Elizabeth's [aged 39] children were:
Elizabeth 18
Sarah 13
Mary 7
Ann 4
Emma 0

All the children born at Ealing.

I am hoping for some assistance to determine Elizabeth's maiden name.

Hi Westy

Have you tried using the GRO Birth index  which lists the mother's maiden name of a child - free to use https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/indexes_search.asp     I think this is their last child Emma

EMMA WILKINSON   mothers maiden name BOWLER   
GRO Ref: 1851  March Qrter  BRENTFORD  Vol 03  Page 12

Will have a look for the other children and parents marriage

There's a marriage between Samuel WILKINSON occ:Post horse? driver and Elizabeth BOWLER (father James- a farmer) 1850 St Martin-In-The-Fields.

Seems a little odd but.....

It does look possible with right occupation for Samuel.   Is Elizabeth's father listed??
