Marriage and/or death of Elizabeth LEES, b. 1849 Oldham, Lanc.
« on: Saturday 30 April 22 14:09 BST (UK) »
I have trouble finding the marriage and the death of Elizabeth LEES. She was born in 1849 in Oldham, Lanc. (GRO Oldham 1849 D 20 660), baptized 6 Jan 1850 CoE St Thomas in Leesfield, Lanc.
Her parents were William Lees (1828-1899) and Matty Wain (1828-1853). (Her father remarried, 1854, Amelia Winterbottom.)
I find Elizabeth in the 1851 and 1861 census, but after that I loose her.

Any help wll be appreciated.

There is a possible death and burial in 1866.

Elizabeth Lees 16 yrs

If you have Ancestry the burial record is at Leesfield which makes it likely.
The address is Spring Vale, Copster Hill which is the other side of town but in 1871, William and Amelia are living in Hadfield Street - not far from Copster Hill area.

Thank you! That indeed seems a likely candidate.
