Sarah Edge's (daughter of George and Eliza) birth certificate of 1865 shows that Eliza Edge is the same person as Eliza Allman nee Eliza Lee, daughter of Thomas Lee.  This means either that George Allman had died at some point between the date of the 1861 census and Sarah's birth in 1865 and Eliza then married a George Edge, with the Allman children taking the Edge,  or that George Allman changed his name to George Edge for some reason.   I wondered if someone could check whether a George Allman of Bickerton died 1861-1865 or whether Eliza Allman, widow, married a George Edge in the same period.

One further query I'm afraid.  George and Eliza Allman are shown with a 10 year old daughter Elizabeth on the 1861 census. I think this Elizabeth subsequently changed her name to Elizabeth Edge and married James roscoe.  She does not appear in their household on the 1851 census.  Later censuses give inconsistent ages for her with years of birth between 1849 and 1851.  If the age in 1861 is correct, given that the census in 1851 was for the night of 30 March and that in 1861 was for 7 April, the young baby Elizabeth must have been elsewhere in 1851 or was born between 30 March and April 7.  However, I cannot trace her birth on the GRO BMD lists - I have tried 1850 and 1851.  Any ideas?

You've got your dates mixed up roscoebury; you should be looking for Elizabeth on the 1871 census. She's on the same page as the other Edges in Bickerton. Also there in Burwardsley in 1881.
