A certificate gained at Sunday School has come to light and might be my only hope of tracing this family.
Dated December 6th 1863 it says - this is to certify that Elizabeth Sophia Davis was a scholar in the National and Sunday School. North Leigh.
signed Robt. W Fiske, Vicar.
As far as I can make out Elizabeth Sophia Davis' parents were William and Sophia Davis.
If this is the Elizabeth I am searching for - it pushes her date of birth back by about 20 years!! I am wondering if the certificate is her mother? I have no information on this family how or when they came to Australia.
If anyone could find any trace of the family I would be grateful and/or any information about the church this vicar belonged to.
What was the National and Sunday School scheme? How old (or young) would the scholars have been?
Thank you,
Vonny
