Just looked through my notes again and looks like I made a
slight mistake
apologies Bucksboy for ignoring your wisdom
The 1851 census shows John King (b.1805 Kirt) married to Eliza (b.1811 Tackley) and their 4 children.
As previously mentioned I found 2 possible baptisms in Tackley for Eliza - #1: Eliza Matilda b.1810 dau/of Thomas & Mary, or #2: Elizabeth b.1812 dau/of Thomas & Sarah.
On the 1841 census there is a Sarah b.1781 who I *assumed* was the mother of either John or Eliza.
Baptism of John (1803, Kirt) states parents as Charles & Elizabeth, so I *assumed* that John's wife Eliza must be the Elizabeth born in 1812 not the Eliza Matilda born in 1810.
However looking at the 1861 census again it is John married to "Eliza M." and the 1871 census there is an "Eliza M." mother-in-law of David Siggars, who married Sarah Ann King (b1831 Tackley dau/of John & Eliza, died 1863). Pretty conclusive.
The Eliza
beth born 1812 I think was the one who married Robert Buswell in 1832. The witness is Maria King, and she did have a sister called Maria.
Going back the 1841 census (getting dizzy going round in circles with this family) there is also living with John Eliza and Sarah a Fredrick Busswell b.1837, who is the son of Robert Buswell and Elizabeth (who's mother was Sarah). There's some link I've yet to figure out between Sarah and John but it's trickier than I originally thought.
Lesson learned... Eliza is not the same as Elizabeth
