Biography

Elizabeth Lowe's birth year is estimated.

Elizabeth (spinster of the parish) married Samuel Waters (of Thorp Acre, Leicestershire, bachelor) on 6 July 1786 at St. Martin's in Birmingham, Warwickshire.^[1] The witnesses were Richard Cluitt and Mary Cluitt. Three probable baptisms from the marriage can be found, all baptised to Samuel and Elizabeth:

• Mary Waters was baptised 7 April 1787 at St. Martin in Birmingham.^[2]
• Ann Waters was baptised on 8 August 1788 at St. Martin.^[3]
• probable daughter Dorothy "Walters" was baptised on 10 April 1792 at St. Martin. She was buried on 1 November 1792, daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth "Walters".
• Dorothy Waters was baptised on 27 August 1793 at St. Martin.^[4]

Samuel Waters was buried on 4 June 1796 at St. Martin in Birmingham.^[5]

Elizabeth (a widow) married Jacob Bisp (a bachelor) on 21 November 1797 at St. Peter and St. Paul in Aston, near Birmingham.^[6] The witnesses were James Healey and Thomas Forrest.

It is uncertain when Elizabeth died but her husband, Jacob, dissolved his business partnership with Jonathan Jennings in November 1798^[7] and by July 1803 had remarried in Bristol, Gloucestershire, probably moving there sometime beforehand.
