Have you looked for a marriage?

Hi,

I think I have found the death of Elizabeth in 1878 and hoped that if I bought the cert,I would get her maiden name.
It seems that maiden names weren't added until the 1960's unfortunately.

Could someone help me out please.

All of the information I have is from the 1871 census of England on Ancestry

This census is poorly transcribed and most of the names etc are mistranscribed.

On this census Elizabeth is a widowed Baker.

Her husband Richard Good was a Baker on his children's marriages. The last one in 1859.
I have never been able to find Richard and his wife together on a census at all,so don't even know where he was born, or where they lived together.

Richard and Elizabeth's children were

So I have information for the children of Elizabeth and Richard but nothing for themselves.

Any advice on how/where to look for information on the couple would be great.Also would be a great help if some one else with a fresh perspective could take a look as I'm just going round in circles!

Thanks to any one taking the time to help me out
