This looks like the same family!  Eli Hambler born c1809 was the father of David Hambler, husband of Alice Wild.  I believe his wife was called Mary, but I don't have any details of Eli senior.  The son of David and Alice was called Charles Eli (1875-1925).  He was the brother of my elusive relative Cousin Sarah, married name Kershaw.  If you can struggle through all the pages of this topic you will see that Sarah was the cousin of my grandmother.

I have more information on the family from another person interested in them.  You can send me a PM if you like.
