Facts and Events
Elizabeth Arnold was baptised on 4th June 1750 at Luton in Bedfordshire, daughter of Elizabeth Arnold, formerly Stokes, and her husband John Arnold. The family lived at Newmill End, a hamlet in the south of the parish on the River Lea, near the border with Hertfordshire. Elizabeth appears to have been the second of seven children. In 1766 Elizabeth's mother died. On 19th November 1770, aged 20, Elizabeth married a man named John Mardell. One of the witnesses to the marriage was John Warren, who the following year would marry Elizabeth's sister Mary. Sadly Elizabeth's marriage to John Mardell was very short; he was buried just six weeks later. Just under ten months later, on 21st October 1771, Elizabeth married again, with her second husband being John Marshall. They settled at Chiltern Green, on the hill immediately east of Newmill End. Between 1773 and 1785 they had six children baptised at Luton, although their eldest son George died when he was only five years old in 1778. In 1802 Elizabeth's daughter Phoebe died aged 19 of a fever. The following year Elizabeth died (of "decline"), aged about 53. She was buried at Luton on 2nd June 1803. References
