Elizabeth Cummins b 1797 Bolton upon Swale
« on: Saturday 24 February 24 16:38 GMT (UK) »
Family search has the baptism of an Elizabeth Cummins on 21 Dec 1797 at Bolton upon Swale, parents George and Harriot Cummins.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JQ2W-7BJ
Could she be the Eliza Cummins buried in 1823 aged 28 in Kirk Leatham? This Eliza lived in Yearby.

I am helping someone in Australia who is trying to identify an Eliza Cummin[g]s said to have been born in Yorkshire who married John Dunnon/Durron in Van Diemen's Land in 1825 aged 30 [so born ca 1795]. In a later documentsshe stated she was a free settler - ie not a convict.

There was a Miss E Cummings on the 'Hope' which arrived at Hobart in April 1824. 

Does anyone have any knowledge of this 1797 Elizabeth d/o George & Harriot which could confirm or exclude her being the woman buried in 1823 or the woman in Tasmania?

Thanks for any help

FindMyPast image of the parish register shows that the family are "of Scorton" in 1797 - this may be "Scawton"  :-\
