Potter, Elizabeth - west wratting
« on: Saturday 07 November 09 12:06 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for more information on Elizabeth Potter. Born 1819 to Joseph and Hannah Potter at Horseheath, lived at West Wratting in 1839 had a son Lazarus Potter, On his birth record it lists William Martin as father. I am trying to track down if she married, when she died and any other information. :D

She was by no means unusual to have had an illegitimate child yet never married

Hi, the only thing I found was on a birth record that listed his father as William Martin occ. groom. I am descended from Lazarus' son Walter Potter where do you fit in?

Hi Tina
I am related to Lazarus Potter as well, he is my great grandfather, on my mother's side.  Her father was Hurtle Potter and her mother was Betty Meta Sherrah.  Do you have any photos of Lazarus that you could share with me?  Thanks, Pat
