I know that I have found her in previous census as on one she gives her POB as Warwickshire, I can't find any trace of her other than the 1881 cens.

does anyone have time to have a look please.

many thanks

I have John/Eliza from 1881 onwards and their respective deaths/probate dates, Eliza does NOT appear with them after 1881.

Could she be the Eliza Possnett who married in Blaby Reg Dist, Leicestershire in Jun Qtr 1889?

No, sorry, think I've found that Eliza in the 1891 Census in Blaby - married to Arthur M. Cox and mother Mary Possnett.

Hi Kirsty,

I am not sure what happens to her, I can't even seem to find a likely birth ref.. seems odd that she just vanishes!

[Darksecretz]

I'm not having much luck, I can't even find her mother now.. in 1871!!

I think this may be the parents in 1871 but Eliza isn't with them

Thank you Jackie, that IS them, am pretty sure they are living next door to the Benistons.. they are a family that married in to the Holmes' (Elizas MN) so in theory Eliza the daughter should be about 3 and has to be somewhere, doesnt she?

[Night Owl]

I'm wondering whether she was actually their daughter. I can't find an obvious marriage or death for her. If she was their daughter they only seemed to have had the one child which would have been unusual.

Is this the elder Eliza on 1911 as a widow?

If so, she has completed the bit about marriage and children although its then been crossed through, presumably because she was a widow. She has said that there were no children of the marriage

Mountsorrel came under Barrow (Barrow on Soar) Julie. There is a birth of an Eliza Holmes in Barrow in June 1867, could this be her born to an unmarried sister possibly?

yep thats Eliza the mother Jackie, I did see that, but when I came back to the census, saw the daughter on the 81.

oooh Chris I wonder if they only said they were married?

[Darksecretz]

[Chrissie Smiff]

She isn't with Eliza's parent in 1871, could she be with John's parents?

[Chrissie Smiff]

Tried everything I can think of Julie, no luck - sorry.

[Darksecretz]

She isn't with Eliza's parent in 1871, could she be with John's parents?

nope as they both died in 1840s

there is another Holmes family in MS at this time as well, she I think, belongs to them, I have accounted for all the other sisters I think.

[Darksecretz]

Elizas parents have 6 children, though, there are gaps where others could've been born, we have

Joseph Holmes b. 1836 d.1897
Eliza b.1839 d.1930
Sarah b. 1842 d.??
John b. 1845 d.1910
Frances b. 1848 d. 1865
Isaac b. 1858 d. ???

I spose that there could be a child/ren born between Joseph & Eliza and then between Frances/Isaac, Though I have not found any births in Whitwick that would fit, as I have been through the Prs. (am pretty sure that they were methodists too)

[Darksecretz]

I wonder if John POSNETT can be found in 1861?

[Chrissie Smiff]

Isn't that them that Jackie posted in 6?

[Darksecretz]

Isn't that them that Jackie posted in 6?

it is them but not the 1861, John will be single in this census, as he marries Eliza in '62

[Chrissie Smiff]

Sorry, I thought you said 1871 :o
