There are 3 Eliza Waghorns on 1871 born 1856/7 in Kent which is why we need to know if you have the marriage cert for the name and occupation of her father

According to the census the only time that the middle initial A turns up is in 1901.

Do you have her marriage certificate to see who her father is??
