I have an Eliza Ann Laker, b. 1820 to Rosman & Elizabeth James in Devonport (Stoke Damerel) Devon, married William Laker in 1843 (East Stonehouse, Devon). I have census records for 1861/71/81 and a death in 1883 but I can't find either Eliza or William in 1851. William was a seaman so may have been at sea (as he probably was in 1861). As far as I know there were no children.
Can anyone help please.

Re: Eliza Ann Laker 1851.
Scrub my last message, I miss read your post, did not realise you found Eliza death and it was 1851 you w ere looking for. A little tip, Its always best to try and use caps for surnames. female maiden names in brackets, that way its easier to read and see who is whom.

Do you know the address where daughter Emily was born?
Was William John Laker 1845 to 1848 theirs? Born/died Stoke Damerel district

I don't have the Emily birth address.
I don't know about William John, there was another, related, Laker family in the district for a while.

I can't find the entry so it might as well be archived.
