Come to a total dead end finding a relative and need help please!
1851: I'm looking for Elizabeth Pike, the widow of Joseph Pike.
Elizabeth was born. c1791, Devon.
In 1841, Joseph and Elizabeth are living in Milton, Buckland Monachorum. Joseph, a farm labourer, dies in 1844 and I can't find his wife, Elizabeth in 1851. I can't find a death for her that matches either, as the seeming match on the BMD for 1847 Tavistock is for the wife of a Richard Pike (a waggoner).
Can anyone please have a look and see if Elizabeth's lurking anywhere? She could be living anywhere nearby, as a lodger, or possibly living with her children Mary (Batten) b 1816, or Elizabeth (Barnett) b 1821, both born Buckland/Tavistock area.
Thank you!!!! :) :)

Hi, this is probably 9 years too late, but in case you didn't find Elizabeth Pike, she was at Milton living with daughter Maryann Honeywell and son-in-law William.
