I am looking for information on Elizabeth Wright who came to Australia with her husband Richard. I have found Richard and his sons but can't find anything on Elizabeth. Her maiden name was Wood and her first marriage name was Drew before she married Richard. Her parents were Joseph and Mary Wood She came to Australia in 1882 on the ship Cuzco and they arrived in Victoria. Can anyone help

HI

It may help if you could possibly provide a date and place of birth for Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was born in about 1838 in North Shields, Tynemouth, Northumberland, England. Her parents were Mary and Joseph Wood. She married Thomas Drew then she married Richard Wright in 1878. She came to Australia in 1882 with Richard and his sons James, Matthew John, Robert and Edward. They arrived in Victoria on the ship Cuzco. I have found Richard death certificate, James two marriage certificates and his death certificate, Matthew marriage and death certificates, Robert marriage and death certificates. I am really puzzled to what happened to Elizabeth and Edward. As of now I haven't found anything on them.
