Derek you asked ... 'I am looking for a burial of a Eliza WAY baptised 7th February 1819 in Athelhampton. Eliza was the daughter of William & Ann WAY; They had a daughter Elizabeth WAY baptised at Athelhampton 13 October 1822. I'm assuming that Eliza died in the meantime.' .... I have numerous families in which the parents named different daughters Eliza and Elizabeth, with neither having died. It may therefore be the case that Eliza WAY did not die prior to Elizabeth's birth. That being the case you may care to consider a burial of an Eliza WAY at Milborne St Andrew which took place on 22 June 1837 when the person involved was aged 19. Duncan, Dundee

Hi Duncan, You may be right, but: Eliza WAY baptised 17 Jul 1818 Milborne St Andrew d/o Charles WAY & Susanna SYMONDS buried 21 Jan 1839 Milborne St. Andrew. Based on the dubious ages Elizabeth WAY born 1822 married George BENDLE That leaves Eliza ........ You may be right but I cannot find Eliza alive if I tie Elizabeth to George BENDLE This is a classic 'either / or' Best wishes, Derek > From: d.smith.1@blueyonder.co.uk > To: dorset@rootsweb.com > Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 20:24:10 +0100 > Subject: [DOR] Eliza WAY of Athelhampton > > Derek you asked ...
