Elizabeth seemed a bit unsure about her age. The 1861, 1881 and 1901 Censuses give a calculated year of birth of 1848; the 1871 Census gives 1845; and the 1901 Census 1848. The 1871 and 1901 Censuses give her birthplace as St Luke which was a registration district until 1869 when it was absorbed into Holborn. A search of the CRI(E&W) produced a birth registration in the quarter ending Jan 1848 in the district of St Luke. Her baptismal record gives a birth date which fits the birth registration in so far as the date is concerned but the church of St Leonard is in the adjacent parish of Shoreditch. This is perfectly reasonable as they may just have attended the nearest church. Unfortunately the Abode entry in the register is indecipherable so it is not possible to check

Hezekiah was Elizabeth's stepfather, i.e. her mother's husband who she had married in 1861 after the death of Elizabeth's father in 1851. Elizabeth's mother would have accompanied her husband. The relationship of the other witness John Wise to the couple is not known. The wedding was almost certainly attended by the groom's father but his mother was dead having died in 1864. Who else was there is not known.
