  • Elizabeth Green, Elmsett Suffolk

    James Smith birth Unknown and Elizabeth (Green) b 1786/1792 Elmsett, Suffolk had two children - Cassandra bap 1813 and Oliver bap 1816 both Rushmere St Andrew, Suffolk.
    I am unable to find a marriage for James and Elizabeth.
    James died before 1841 but I have Elizabeth Smith on the following Censuses:

    1841 Widow b 1791 (age 50) in County with daughter Cassandra - Could therefore possibly be born 1786/7
    1851 Widow b 1786 Elmsett living on same street as Cassandra
    1871 Widow b 1786 Elmsett with another granddaughter Susannah (Oliver's daughter)


    On the Cosford Database, which I have found extremely accurate in the past, there is a list of Green families born in Elmsett.

    The only Elizabeth Green baptised anywhere near 1786 is 1792 to parents Robert Green and Amy (Amey) Garrard but it doesn't give a DOB.
    This is on family search too.

    Am I clutching at straws to think this is my Elizabeth? Any help or advice with the baptism or her marriage would be most welcome.

    Might be well worth requesting a copy of the original image from FS because often if the baptism was for anything other than a baby, the cleric recorded the fact in a marginal note.
    Always looking for Goodwins in Berkshire.

          No - I don't believe that to be correct Edna. Sometimes the age is given if they are older than 1 year.
          These are my 4 Adams all baptised the same day. I didn't know their ages until I found them on Censuses.

            Sorry I only have the free stuff so cant be much help, though I did find a marriage in 1814 in Framlingham Suffolk to a Lionel Smith, any possibility he had a middle name.

              Thanks Edna, I know nothing about James so wouldn't know that I'm afraid. Lionel is on censuses so not the one - Elizabeth was a widow before 1841. The one in York I've checked out too.
              Thanks for trying - much appreciated.

                  Elaine, WOW! Where did you find that? I've been looking for years. Could I have the ref for that please. Bet it's FMP?

                  As widow, Elizabeth lived in St Clements for the rest of her life.

                    Hi Kat

                    Went to FMP and started around 1813, really chuffed when I saw where the marriage was.

                    Was then trying to look for Cassandra's in the area and work out where the name and Oliver came from otherwise it look like the baptism you found for Elizabeth would seem to be the one.
