How can you be sure that it is her with Albert Tow in 1881. In 1871 she was 3 years old born Lancaster, the one in Liverpool in 1881 was age 15 born Liverpool.
There were 10 marriages of an Elizabeth Warbrick between 1881 and 1901 in Lancashire, 5 in the Liverpool area, indicating there there were others with the same name around, it could have been any of them. That said I cannot see a death between 1871 & 1881 either, so she had to be somewhere in 1881.

Robesur and Sue thank you both.Robesur in the 1871 census i have Elizabeth is aged 5yrs living in Pitt St, Lancaster.The only Elizabeth Warbrick of the same age i could find in the 1881 census is the one living with the Tow family in Liverpool,so i assumed that was her.In the 1881 census Elizabeth's family had moved up to Cumberland(Nether Welton) but she is not with them.Sue if i have it right in 1881 Elizabeth is in the Everton area of Liverpool.Thank You.Cumbrian

Hi folks :)
Elizabeth's sister Tamar is also 5 in 1871 census.
1881 she is 15.
Elizabeth transcribed as 3yrs in 1871 but looks like 5.

Poss Eliz bn 1867 Lancaster??

Here's 1881 RG11/5163/95/8 for Tamar & Co.
