Does anyone have information about an Elizabeth Butcher, born abt 1789 in Wiltshire. She married Thomas Cleverly in 1807 amd died in abt 1855.
There are a few Elizabeth Butchers around that time and as I don't have the christening date am unsure which is the correct one.
Thanking you
Kaylee

Is this her death??

Name: Elizabeth Butcher
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1855
Registration district: Warminster
Inferred County: Wiltshire
Volume: 5a
Page: 129 (click to see others on page)

I see trees on ancestry using this death reg but if she was Cleverly why would her death be in the name of Butcher?

BVRI has 9 children of Thomas & Elizabeth between 1807-1832. Do you have them? Unfortunately I can't find Elizabeth's birth.

Thank you for your help. I have her marriage to Thomas Cleverly and the , childrens christening dates, also her death. What I don't have is Elizabeth Butchers christening date so I can find her parents. From the census she gave her age as as 62 so her birth was abt 1789. I have 2 Elizabeth Butchers christened in Wiltshire a few years after that date but don't know the correct one.

regards Kay

jax Report 8 Nov 2011 23:44

You say you have her death?? your opening posts says about 1855??

I cannot see a Elizabeth Cleverly death around that time

I posted the death reg above of Elizabeth Butcher only because I had seen it on a few trees on ancestry...surely that is not correct?

Maybe I'm wrong?
