Elizabeth Tapper Date of birth

[tcab]

I am failing to find a date and place of birth for Elizabeth Tapper (G G M )
Her bible states she was born 21 October but does not give a year.
I know she married Hugh Black on 23 June 1872 at Aldershot and on the certificate her age could be
20 or 26. Father's name shown as Elias
She later married William Hill in Guernsey on 19 November 1882 and her age is given as 28.
She appears in the 1911 census with an age of 57 and birth year 1854 and her birthplace stated as Stratford England.
I have tried the variations of Topper, Tupper, Tappen etc but without success.
Any clue will be appreciated

Goodness she married twice in the same year 

Is birthplace consistent on all census?

[tcab]

Sorry--Marriage to Hill was 1882--original note now amended.

I have only found her in 1911 census--after marriage to Hugh, who was in the army, they were posted to Cork in Ireland and spent some years there

[Milliepede]

Right so she wouldn't be on a census in England then if in Cork.

Not finding an Elias Tapper anywhere nor the Guernsey one you found so not being much help sorry!

What surname is she under in 1911?  I've been through all the Elizabeth's and can't find one born Stratford England.

[tcab]

She is shown as Mrs E Hill living with one of her sons Charles R Black and his wife Mrs H A Black. Ther were at Livingstone Road Walthamstow.

But  now I have looked at this more closely although her birthplace is given as Stratford and Mrs Black's birthplace is given as Shaftesbury there is a small note asking for these two pieces of information to be reversed.
So Elizabeth Tapper ( Black and then Hill) was born in Shaftesbury not Stratford-- but even with that
information I have a quick look and still not found her!
