    There was an Elizabeth Whittam who died at age 36 in Burnley in 1862. So far I cannot find Elizabeth and James with their family in the 1871 census. I wonder if Elizabeth was the one who died in1862. Yes, it is her...she had given birth to John Thomas Jan 19, 1862, a few weeks before his mom’s death. There is a James, age 47, cotton weaver, born Worsthorne Lanc, with Sally Whittam, age 36, born Haworth Yorkshire, in the 1871 census with sons Benjamin and James with birth years and places which match. All the males were cotton weavers.
