Person:Elizabeth Moore (265)

Elizabeth Moore was baptised on 9th October 1808 at Maidford in Northamptonshire, daughter of Judith Moore, formerly Emery, and her husband Robert Moore, a labourer. Elizabeth's father died in 1817.

It would seem that Elizabeth died at the age of nineteen, being buried at Maidford on 22nd August 1828. Her mother survived her.

   There were two Elizabeth Moores born around the same time in Maidford. The other Elizabeth was the daughter of a couple called George and Sarah, baptised 17th August 1807. One of the two will presumably be the Elizabeth Moore who married William Haydon in Shoreditch in 1836, who later indicated in the censuses that she was born around 1807/8 in Maidford. The other is presumably this Elizabeth who was buried at Maidford on 22nd August 1828. Elizabeth daughter of George and Sarah would have been 21 years old in August 1828, whereas the age at death is given as 19, which is how old the Elizabeth daughter of Robert and Judith was at the time. It therefore seems more likely that the Elizabeth who married William Haydon was the daughter of George and Sarah, whilst the Elizabeth daughter of Robert and Judith was this one who died in 1828.
