      Eliza is found in the 1841 England Census for Market Stainton--making her age about 13 years. She does not appear in the 1851 Census for North Ormsby, Lincolnshire with her parents. In 1851 she would have been abt 21 years of age--possibly married by then. This estimate would place her marriage likely in the 1846-1851 period. Or, she may have died between 1841 and 1851--Check Market Stainton and North Ormsby records for this.

    Marriage of William Snowden and Eliza Emmerson Scamblesby Parish, Lincolnshire, England
    Married in the Scamblesby Parish Church on the fourth day of October in the year 1825.
    It is interesting that both William and Eliza signed their names and did not use the customary "X" mark. William was an agricultural worker throughout his life, and demonstrated an unusual level of literacy for the day. Eliza's handwriting is quite elegant as well.

    The marriage of William Sowden (Snowden), Bachelor and Eliza Emmerson, Spinster was approved by Banns and performed on the 4th day of October, 1825. Note the handwriting of both William and Eliza near the bottom of the form--which was remarkable given the fact that they were barely 20 years old and lived in rural farming communities. That William spelled his name as Sowden is not unusual, as spelling was phonetic in that era and the name was spelled in several ways.
