Can confirm little about Eliza. She exists in several census entries (1851 through 1871), but can’t find birth date (~1822) and possible entries for marriage and death certificates are dubious. More work needs to be done.

NOT marriage in 1850 Mar Penkridge.

Check to see if this is beginning of A-line Woottons. By the time of the 1841 census, Charles was 29 years old -- and there is NO Charles Wootton in Wymeswold in 1841 or later census records. Consistent with LDS marriage in IGI record --25 yrs old in Jan 1837
