Elizabeth was my 2 x great grandmother. I thinks born in Frithville, near Boston Lincolnshire.

She married Jabez Mountain in Boston in 1877.

One of their children was Elizabeth Ann Mountain my greatgrandmother.

Does anyone have more info re Elizabeth Wilson and her ancestors please?

with best wishes

Marriages Sep 1877 (>99%)

Mountain Jabez Boston 7a 704
Wilson Elizabeth Boston 7a 704

I'm afraid I have to agree with Pamela - the two census places listed for Elizabeth's birthplace do not come up in the 1861 and 1871 censuses, and there are several Elizabeths in both censuses. The marriage certificate would be helpful.
