A large brick wall

Ellen is William Weaver's sister

Wander if William ever kept in touch with his first 3 children. His second wife Matilda Bartlet who he married on the 27 November 1847 in Cowes IOW went on to have another 6 daughters.

Do we know when Elizabeth's parents died?

Wonder if they have a gravestone or something that might mention her long shot I know but if she died first it might say also our beloved daughter Elizabeth who died such and such

Name: William Fisher [edit]
Birth: 01 Oct 1780
Abbots Bromley, Staffordshire
Death: 23 May 1873 (92 years)
Uttoxeter,Staffordshire
Event: Occupation
Agricultural Labourer
Event: Baptism

Abbots Bromley, Staffordshire

Do not know when her mother Hannah died but would be after 1823 when her last child was born
siamese

See in 1851 Ann is working as a servant Uttoxeter. So if she married would be after then.

...there's an Ann Blore born Blithefield marrying in Lichfield 1856
Groom Charles Myatt

1861

Charles Myatt 30 born Abbots Bromley
Anne 26 born Blithefield
Anne 4
Harriot 3
Jane 1

all children born Colton

and next household is Woolley a name which has cropped up before

Unfortunately by 1871 Charles has a new wife Martha and 4 new children

marriage Lichfield Mar 1863 so Ann must have died

death Lichfield Mar 1862

On the 1861 census, William and Hannah (nee Abberley) Fisher are living in Colton (in Lichfield Registration District), aged 80 and 83, respectively, and William is listed as an Agricultural Labourer.

I can't find either of them on the 1871 census and, assuming they both died at home sometime between the 61 and 71 census, the only possible death registrations in the Lichfield RD are:

Hannah - Q4 1861
William - Q1 1862 or Q2 1863

I've looked on Ancestry, FMP and FS, but I can't see that the Colton records have been indexed

Doesn't take us any further forward to finding Elizabeth's death though

Siamese - which was the death certificate you got that was not the correct one, please?

STG

Those are the death options I thought too STG.

I think the death of William in Uttoxeter is a different chap because he has a daughter Martha and there is no Martha in the list of children siamese posted.

How common was it for deaths to go unregistered? I know births sometimes slipped through the net but would have thought a death less likely.

Thanks friends for your endurance on this family. I just have to accept that Elizabeth died before 1841 very likely in London and never registered, or the paper work got lost.
