Elizabeth Watts per Marguerite 12.10.05

(Marguerite Poett)

Hi David
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
I am not sure if   my    Elizabeth    is yours!

Her children were:
Elizabeth Sarah   (my ggrandmother)    b 1849
Catherine Alice                        1851  
William Cranmer                      1855
 and Thomas Watts                 1857.

On the 1881 Census there was an     Alfred    b  1848
 but I have been unable to find his birth.

The mother Elizabeth died 1858/9 in Shoreditch London.

BMD's  data : 
Death        1859 Q2    Elizabeth Caroline Wilshire      Shoreditch  1 c  98

Births        1849 Q3   Elizabeth Sarah  Wilshire          Shoreditch   II  394?
                    1851 Q4  Catherine Alice  Wilshire            Shoreditch   II  446?
                    1855 Q2  William Cranmer Wilshire           Shoreditch  1 c  149
                    1857 Q4  Thomas Watts  Wilshire              Shoreditch  1 c 141

I am    hoping that you will find these names in your files!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards from Marguerite

Elizabeth from memory married one of the Whiter boys,but I need to recover

the data from some spoilt files.

If you have the names of the children I will see if I can backtrack the family links

Hi David, My gggrandmother was Elizabeth Watts.
She married ? a William Wilshire. 
They had several children in Shoreditch late 1840's-1850's.
 Elizabeth died 1859 in Shoreditch. 
This is all the info that I have on her. 
Can you help me at all? 
I am having so much trouble going back on both sides of this family.
