Mystery solved!!

Wilfred Collier died at the beginning of 1855.

This is Lydia's second marriage......didn't waste much time.


Marriages Sep 1855


>>>>Collier Lydia Sheffield 9c 443
McLaurin Emily Sheffield 9c 443
Sizer George Sheffield 9c 443
>>>>Wright Thomas Sheffield 9c 443

It looks as if Thomas Wright above married Lydia Collier, so it looks as if you have been going along the wrong path.
