Hi all, struggling again, so come to my fav board people!

I need to know the whereabouts of Elizabeth Crowther in 1871 onwards please and to whom she married, if at all.

Her father was Charles Crowther c1820, born in Norfolk. He first married Elizabeth Rothery c1825 on 17.10.1842 in Halifax. They had three children,

Rothery Crowther c1845
ELIZABETH CROWTHER c1849
David Crowther c1850

Elizabeth Crowther nee Rothery dies and Charles remarries to a Mary Bretton and has three more children,

John Crowther c1855
Reuben Crowther c1861- dies
Mary Jane Crowther c1864

Hope you can help?

Best wishes

Debi

According to a tree on Ancestry she married 1872 in halifax to Charles edward baines and had Sarah Ann Baines 1872 - 1953
Joseph edward Baines 1875 - 1947.

They have the same parents for her as you have.
Please double check this info.

Another tree says she died 10/7/1912 and her husband had died 24/6/1912

Yes that does look like a different one.

So a lot of people on Ancestry maybe have it wrong!!
