Hi lloyd and alberta,
Many thanks - I have all this info already.
My problem is that I am helping out another ancestry guy, who thinks that Eliza May (mother Martha) is his ancestor....but he has now come across another Eliza Lorton (born around the same time) with parents John Lorton and Mary.
It is this other Eliza we want to try and eliminate... I think he'll need to buy the marriage cert of Lorton/Blick to confirm once and for all, eh?
