I see on that marriage of Eliza to William Henry Betchley one of the witnesses was J.C. Beckett. Presumably Eliza's step-father.

This could be the arrival of her first husband in Canada - Bertie's grandparents had a son Joseph on the 1901 census who isn't there in 1911:
Canadian Passenger Lists, 1865-1935 Name: Joseph Lawton Gender: Male Age: 24 Estimated birth year: abt 1880 Date of Arrival: 12 Aug 1904 Vessel: Lake Champlain Port of Arrival: Montreal, Quebec Port of Departure: Liverpool, England Roll: T-483
This man is from Leicester, chap above him on the list is a bookbinder and that has been dittoed for Joseph.

Hello Pamela Joy, Elizabeth Beckett's age on the 1911 arrival is actually listed as 47. As she is Eliza Jones' mother I think we can safely assume that she and her second husband John Charles Beckett had lopped a few years off of their ages to ensure gaining entry to Canada.
Also on that 1911 arrival Eliza Lawton's marital status is "W" signifying she was a widow.

I think Eliza was married when she was in Canada. I think the son was born after marriage. Eliza wrote to my mother. at some point in the past she was told her married name was Betchley. My mother died in 1985. I am trying to find out what year she went to Canada on what boat. Perhaps a previous marriage name was Lawton. Some how the dates of Eliza Lawton 31 and Elizabeth Becket aged 44 don't tally
