Eliza married William Atkinson at St James' Church, Sutton on 14 March1877. [1][9] Both William and Eliza signed the register, as did the witnesses (Eliza's brother John and her sister Sarah). She is known to have had ten children:

  1. Hannah Maria (1875-1916)

In the 1881 census Eliza was recorded with her three daughters at 22 Front Street, Sutton.[10][11] - her husband was not in the family home as he was visiting his widowed mother. By 1891 the family now had a son, and were living in High Street, Sutton [12][13]

Eliza died in Hull Royal infirmary on 30 March 1900 from Carcinoma of Uterus.[1][14] Her death was registered the following day by her widower.
