Research Note

Records show the following information which differs from the previous biography; Eliza definitely married William Henry Perrin in Bristol. It is quite clear on the marriage certificate. His occupation was general dealer. She was previously 'married' to William Henry Periam (1833-1907) but has been disconnected.
