Searching for Elizabeth Lee - Completed with many thanks

[CBD]

I'm hoping that someone can help me find Elizabeth Lee.

Elizabeth was born around 1859 in Scotland. She was living in Berwick Upon Tweed in 1881, but I'd like someone to let me know whether she was in Berwick in 1861 and 1871 as well. She should have been living with her parents during these times, but I don't know their names.

Any information would be gratefully received.

Carol.

A possible on the 1861

Tweedmouth, Northumberland 
RG9/3887 Folio 91 Page 15

George Lee, 25, boat builder, b. Tweedmoth
Margaret, 22, b. Berwick
Mary, 4, b. Tweedmoth
Elizabeth, 2, b. Scotland
Robert 9 mths, b. Tweedmouth


If this is her, there's a possible birth on the IGI:

6 Oct 1858 Ayton, Berwick
Parents - Geroge Lee Margaret Cullen

Do you have any more details of her - children's names etc.

This could be her in 1861. All the information I have about Elizabeth is from her married life when she was Elizabeth Wild. Her eldest son was named George Lee Wild, so he could have been named after her father. Her second eldest daughter also had Lee as a middle name. I know that her eldest 3 children were born in Berwick and that George Lee had a North Eastern accent that stood out a mile in Sheffield where they moved to in the 1890s.

I can't find her in 1871 at all.

When and where did she marry?

[CBD]

She was married in Berwick in 1880.

1871

Berwick

There are quite a lot of them - I'll transcribe them in a moment.

Thank you, Gadget. This information is wonderful. I know this is the right family because there is a tremendous amount of overlap between Elizabeth's children's names and her sibling's names.

Thank you again for your research.

Also, Carol, note that Agnes is Agnes Cullin (Margaret's maiden name). The birth for Elizabeth in Ayton, Berwickshire is obviously the correct one
