Person:Elizabeth Forsey (6)

Elizabeth Forsey was baptised on 24th February 1760 at Winsham in Somerset, daughter of Ann Forsey, formerly Sibley, and her husband James Forsey.

Elizabeth has yet to be definitively traced after her baptism. One possibility is that she was the Elizabeth who married Job Tett in 1788 in the neighbouring parish of Crewkerne. That Elizabeth subsequently appears in the 1841 census living in the hamlet of Hewish.
