Hi Beth Clasping at straws. On the 1881 census Elizabeth Marriner born Plawsworth has her niece with her Elizabeth watson age 10 born Greatham.Thomas Watson married a Margaret yet to find marriage. She was born Plawsworth rumour has it maiden name Henderson. I have probable added two and two together and come up with 3. Henderson ends up in the family also becoming a christian name.Watson is such a common name we keep sending for wrong birth certs. regards Chris

look what I found! HENDERSON Elizabeth 1860 Durham Central CARTER William 1860 Durham Central I think we have a maiden name! Beth :)))

Oh Chris We can't be certain that her surname was Henderson - it may be a family name through generations Beth :)

Hi Beth You are a truly wonderful person. Not wishing to prompt anybody you have come up with the surname i was hoping for and solved a big problem and perhaps created somemore. Thank you very very much. Chris

Could this be the birth of Elizabeth H? CARTER Elizabeth Henderson 1864 Durham Central The area is right Might be that the mother was originally Elizabeth Henderson Beth :)

If you can locate the birth of one of her children, the birth cert should give her maiden name Beth :)

Hi Beth Thank you very much for trying for the marriage.It is a shame I do not know the christian name of her first husband as I am trying also to find her maiden name. Thanks for your time . Chris

Hi Chris The only address given is Red Brier which appears to be the name of an area within Framwellgate. Sorry, I took so long. I've been looking for your elusive marriage too - without luck Beth :)

Hi Beth Thanks very much for the info. Would the address be Front Road Lambton Hounds Inn Framwellgate ? That is where she is with her new husband in 1881. Ta Chris

Yes she is a widow and her occupation is innkeeper Beth :)
