Hi, I am trying to find out what happened to an Eliza Fewkes born in Loughborough, Leicestershire in abt 1822. In the 1851 census she is listed as living with parents and her 4mth old son George Henry Fewkes (she isn't married so the son takes her name), then in the 1861 census her son listed as Henry Tilley (father's name?) lives with his aunt Emma Fowke (should be Fewkes). I can not find Eliza Fewkes after 1851. I have found 1 possibility that she married a John Tilley in Loughborough in 1853, but I can not find him or Eliza after this date. I know this sounds confusing, but if anybody can see something I can't, I would be very grateful! Thanks Vicky
