I'm really pleased you've replied! Elizabeth is my ggg grandmother. The earliest information I had about her is: born 5 July 1793, the daughter of John and Mary Amer. In a later census her place of birth is given as Shoreditch. We had established the connection with Doynton but didn't know whether the family came from South Gloucestershire area to London or vice versa so you have answered that question really, and I take it that Trowbridge is the place to investigate. The family seems to have had a great deal of property and Elizabeth had a handsome marriage settlement. John is described in one document as a Miller in ?Church End Stepney I recall.
At the moment I have other things on my plate but will go through the papers and write again in about 10 days time - but keep in touch. I am sure that I have information that will interest you. and I am delighted to have the date of John and Mary's marriage.
Kind regards,
Elisabeth (blotcopy)
