I am trying to sort out a family and in the 1881 Census two of the females seem to be called Lizlia, it has been transcribed as Lizlia and the original looks like Lizlia to me and they both look identical. In the 1891 Census The younger one is called Elizabeth and I know that her marriage cert has her as Eliza Elizabeth. The older one seems to be Eliza but I can’t be 100% sure that it’s the same person as she is now a widow etc etc. If someone couled have a look and see what they think the name is. It’s R.G. 247 page 6 & 7 Islington, 17 Rupert Road. Pg 6 – LizliaWilkinson age 4 born Islington Pg 7 Lizlia Field age 59 born St Peter’s Herts Any help much appreciated. I have this family/families 81, 91 & 01 all living together in the same house (but changing address each time), it seems like parents, in-laws and all sorts all connected but hard to work out who is who! Thanx Dizzy x

I too have Fields from St Albans and district - my Sarah Field was born in 1785 and christened in St Peters. I live in St Albans district myself, so if you need anything looking up let me know.

Actually, that's blown my theory out of the window. I was hoping to find them having a daughter called Mary born 1853. Now i have to rethink!
