Elizabeth Report 26 Jan 2007 23:34

I am trying to find the date of birth of my great grandmother Elizabeth Purvuer Lord. I know she married my great grandfather Charles William Keat on July11th 1872 at S.George Hanover Square. She was aged about 22. I know she had a sister called Florence Lord but don't know if she had any other brothers or sisters. Also l know that Charles William father was called William Keat but again can't find his date of birth or anything about him. If anyone knows anything about the family please get in touch.

She seems to be registered twice once with the name Lord and once with the name Purvuer, or am I getting confused......or should I say registered once but under both names...same registration number. Gail.
