Oh I am such a fool! Yes, sorry, Elizabeth was born in 1870 as Elizabeth Ann Connolly. She was born in Bermondsey, Surrey.

I don't know when she was married, or even who she married, but I have been told by a fellow researcher (who I have lost contact with), that she died under the name Elizabeth Ann Risbry in August 1946 in El Paso, Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. This researcher also told me that she emmigrated to the USA in about 1930.

So, she died aged about 76 years, and I sadly don't know her name in 1911 ... it could be that she was married more than once and Risbry is her second or third or beyond marriage!

Can I make this any easier in finding out where she is in 1901 and 1911 census?

Thanks

Peter

Connolly Elizabeth Ann St. Olave. 1d 222


What was her surname when she emigrated?

What is her surname on the 1911 census?

Dear all,

I am looking for more information about my relation Elizabeth Ann Connolly. She was born on 23 December 1930 in Bermondsey, Surrey. I was recently told that she died Elizabeth Ann Risbry in August 1946 in El Paso, Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA.

She emmigrated to the USA in about 1930, and this is all I know of her. Now, I've looked for a Connolly Risbry marriage but I can't find anything. Now this info was passed onto me, and so I don't know how reliable it is either ... I know this one is a long shot (or it is in my eyes) but I thought I post it on here in case anyone can help.

Thank you,

Peter
