Eliza was born in 1841. Eliza was the child of William Tyers and Elizabeth Reynolds. She was baptised on 22 August 1841 in Plumtree , Nottinghamshire, England.[1]
She emigrated to the United States where she married John Kelley in about 1870. She was recorded on the 1900 US Census living with her husband in Oketo, Marshall, Kansas. [2]
Is Eliza's birth date incorrect on her gravestone? It records her being born on 24 Jul 1842 but the baptism record found for her is in 1841.
