Does not say what she was in prison for on image, but does say married.
Image says High Cross Street, enumerators description of district does not enlighten either

Hi Keith

Earlier I said:
"I too was puzzled as to why they married in Ormskirk- but it was the only Elizabeth Ann Orton / John Kilby marriage that I could come up with."

Perhaps, I should not have 'accepted' this marriage, simply because it was the only one that fitted.

Perhaps I should still be looking for a John Kilby to Elizabeth Ann ? marriage around
c1880.............then again..............

we do know that the 1901 census shows- Elizabeth Kilby aged 38 & 5 children
4 lodgers/relatives? - the 'Steeles'
Ecclesiastical parish: Leicester St Saviour
County/Island: Leicestershire
Street address: 7 Real street
Occupation: none
Condition as to marriage: Widow

Elizabeth A Kilby 38
Emma G Kilby 16
Herbert F Kilby 14
Hettie R Kilby 21
Vincent W Kilby 18
Emma Sherwin 37
Ethel L Steele 1
George E Steele 36
Harold Steele 8

So, we MUST have the right marriage of John & Elizabeth in Ormskirk in 1879 ! ?

Gill, am I getting mixed up here, are we assuming Elizabeth A Kilby and Ann Steel 1827 are one and the same? If so the ages dont tie in.

I know that it is confusing...Im sorry!
I will try to clarify:

I have:
Mr ? Steel born c 1800 who marries
Ann ? c1801. Thereby Ann becomes Ann Steel.

They have a child also called Ann -
Ann Steel c 1826, who marries James Orton c1832. - Thereby she becomes Ann Orton.

They have children: Sarah Orton c1852, Thomas Orton c1856 & Elizabeth Orton
c1850.

Elizabeth A Orton marries John Kilby & thereby becomes Elizabeth A Kilby.
