Title: Elizabeth Casper
Post by: James Shepherd on Saturday 15 May 10 21:54 BST (UK)

Hi All, I am trying to find a birth date or baptism of my ggg/grandmother Elizabeth Casper. Born in Liverpool about 1802. Her farther was Francis Casper. When she married my ggg/grandfather John Ellam in Liverpool on 22nd December 1843 she was a widow with the surname  Needham. Elizabeth died on 6th September 1889 aged 87 and she is buried at Everton cemetery. Any information on her birth or mothers name would be a great help. Thank you, James.

Hi Celia, I have had a good search through the excellent Family search web site, and found all I could on my Casper's. I am  now drawn towards a synagog in Seal Street Liverpool. As it seam's a lot of Casper's from early Liverpool may have been Jewish. Thank's for your help, James.
