Thanks Adeline - I'm not sure about that 1861 census, as her birth year would be 1837, and Eliza had consistently put her birth year as between 1831 and 1833, in 1871-1901 census (which I'm 100% sure are the right entries, based on the rest of the family members).

Perhaps an idea would be for me to to try and trace any further details of this Gt Horkesley Eliza Bibby 1837, and see if she develops into a definitely different person to my one?

Great Horksley Nayland and Colchester are not very far apart. I used to drive through Nayland and great horksley to get to my shop just outside Colchester.

Yes Porkie_Pie, Eliza did marry Timothy Verlander in 1866. I guess I need to buy their marriage certificate? So if I had that it would count in or out that 1841 family perhaps?

Thank you for that Maddie. Yes, that's the 1841 family. But there's nothing else in those details to connect them together, and Great Horkesley is never mentioned in Eliza's census submissions in later years, always Myland or Colchester, Essex. Not convinced that it's her. But maybe I'm being overcautious?

Cannot help with her birth but Eliza may have married? either a Mr VERLANDER or a Mr SARGEANT

The marriage cert should list her fathers details,


Marriages Mar 1866??

Hello - I'm trying to trace the parents and birth details of Eliza Bibby who had a daughter out of wedlock (Ellen 30/12/1861 - I have Ellen's birth certificate, no father named, mother Elisa Bibby Factory Worker, mother, Union Workhouse Colchester).
I can't find Eliza in the 1861 or 1851 census.
There is an Eliza Bibby in the 1841 census, but without the connection with the intervening census, I'm worried to rely on it being the correct family.
