No, it's not that Elizabeth, and unfortunately it begins to seem that I am once again on a wrong trail...

Thanks anyway.

Ah well done.  So that one has a fathers name which is interesting. 

So if she died in 1869 and a child was born in 1866 where was the child born?

[Matti]

I don't know it. As the child became an orphan, I thought her mother died young and something happened to her father as well. William and Sarah Anne looked good candidates for Elizabet's parents, but it seems I was wrong.

I don't know it. As the child became an orphan

Can you provide more details on the child that became an orphan.

Where did she live? Did she marry?

[Matti]

Sure.

Where did her precise date of birth come from?  And this is a different child to Elizabeth Ann Bettney Hunt?

Sorry for all the questions just want to have a clear starting point.

[Matti]

In fact it came from the Family Bible. Please not that this Elizabeth has nothing to do with Sarah Anne or Elizabeth Ann Bettney Hunt. Earlier I thought that I had finally found parents for EA but as seen I was wrong. EA was presumably born in S.A.
