I was wondering about the birth too. Maybe that isnt hers at all.
You may end up having to get a certificate to see.
And check for an Elizabeth Brown birth?
Or christenings for the children.

Certainly a mystery as to what the story is, but I am sure it will get sorted in the end.

I think Sarah Brown marries a John Young and can be found in Alvediston, Wilts in 1861 - subreg district of Donhead, so not too far from the Elizabeth C Tapper b Shaftesbury 1853 who is with the Adlems

John Young    30
Sarah Young    22 - b Shroton
Frank Young    5
Mary Jane Young    5 Months
Sarah Tapper    75 - visitor b Iwerne

RG 9, 1320, 8, 10

Hannah can be found as a servant in Portsea in 1861 & 1871 and from 1881 onwards as a nurse/servant in the Walton household in Mere, Wilts. Her full name appears to be Hannah Green Brown

I now have the birth certificate for the Elizabeth Tapper born in Shaftesbury in 1850
Her father was Thomas Tapper, a hair dresser, and she was born on 7 September. As I am looking for a father named Elias,a plasterer, and a birth date of 21 October seems I am almost back to the beginning!
If I continue to work on Mary Tapper and Elias Brown being her parents (1841 census ) this suggests I am looking for a birth of Elizabeth Brown who used her mothers name later on. There appear to be just a few births in the range 1849/1850 and none of them seem to be in the right quarter.
If this is not the correct Elizabeth I need to look at Elizabeth Tapper births in the range 1852/54 to tie in with her age on marriage certificates. What can I do to avoid buying a lot of birth certificates to try to find the right one?
As always appreciative of peoples time and effort on my behalf

 Seeing as  it was fairly  early   on ,  her  birth   may not  have been registered  ,   it wasn't till 1870's time that   people were  fined  for not  registering a birth
