Elizabeth (Betty) ANSTEY

[DaveHam9]

Possibly the right baptism

Elizabeth bapt. 26 Feb 1784 Dulverton, Somerset - John Anstey & Elizabeth

Elizabeth married William COOKSLEY at St Andrew's parish church, Wiveliscombe 1807

The marriage probably does not list Elizabeth's father's name.

William probably died in 1847.

Looking for a death for Elizabeth/Betty.

Thanks,

Dave

Oh. If age was 49 rounded down to 45 ...

Any earlier baptisms? If there are it would rule out that 1841.

It's not Scotland but Thomas & Mary look more likely.

Now the problem - we have two possible baptisms for William

William c. 12 Mar 1809 St Andrew's Wiveliscombe, Somerset

William Cooksley
Event Type Baptism
Christening Date 01 Jun 1807

[DaveHam9]

Thanks, Dave..

Is all the above yours?

Geoff

Yes, Farmer is the right marriage because Farmer is a middle name for children in Queensland.


The problem is sorting William 1807 and 1809.

We need the other William in census.

 

[horse]

At least different parent names for bap's
