Elizabeth ROBERTS

Elizabeth was born on the 10th of November 1810 and baptized 7 December 1810 in the parish of St George in the East, Middlesex County, ENGLAND to parents John ROBERTS and Margaret LAWRENCE^[1][2]. Elizabeth may not have married, for a record of her marriage has not yet been positively identified. Elizabeth's presumed status as a lifelong spinster is suggested by her appearance in the 1851 Census of England and Wales as a forty-year old unwed servant^[3]. Elizabeth was not sought in subsequent census records, and a record of Elizabeth's death has not been positively identified.

Notes

1. ↑ Source: #LMA, '... 1810 ― December ― ROBERTS ― 7th : Elizabeth, D. of John ROBERTS, Baker, by Margaret. Philip Street. Born 15th November, 1810...' Although the entry for Elizabeth's baptism appears in a different parish register from those of her siblings, it was discovered by searching for any children born to a John ROBERTS and Margaret in that register. That Elizabeth was the child of John and Margaret is confirmed by the fact that her father's occupation and abode corresponds with the information provided in the baptisms of her siblings. See the profiles for Elizabeth's parents and siblings for details and citations. Also see the profile for Elizabeth's brother William Lawrence ROBERTS.
