The problem as well is that the only time she is referred to as Betty is on the 1851, on her marriage she is Elizabeth and on the children's baptisms and the 1841 she is also Elizabeth. The Betty could be a red herring and just a nickname, so perhaps we should be looking for the baptism of an Elizabeth Dent born about 1791.

Careful, Derek, you are in danger of clutching at straws.

From the evidence we know she wasn't born in Durham, both censuses give a DOB about 1891 (although of course the 1841 is rounded) and according to the 1851 she was born in Lunesdale. From her marriage and the children's baptism we know she was probably Elizabeth rather than Betty. Have you got her death, or is she in the 1861 census?

No address for 1861 but Isaac Rowbotham 80 Head Married Pauper formerly road labourer

Elizabeth 68.

Mary Rowbottom granddaughter 14. House servant. Warringham, Durham.

Isaac's death Jan/Feb/March 1864. Hartlepool.
I dont seem to have Elizabeth's death but i'm certain she died same area as Isaac,
thought they were in Hartlepool because McIntosh now live there.

So there again, she is giving her age as being born around 1791/92 rather than earlier.

 :) 1861 address for Isaac & Elizabeth Egglestone Terrace, Egglestone.

Elizabeth's age nearly always shown as 10 years younger than Isaac.

Derek.

Sure Elizabeth died in Hartlepool.

I see as well that in 1861 she still gives her place of birth as Lunesdale, so I think we can be fairly certain that is where she was born.
