Can anyone find a marriage record and/or baptismal record for Elizabeth Francis possibly nee Campbell, born about 1827 in Ireland. We think she belonged to the Church of Ireland. She visited Robert Campbell my great great grandfather in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada in 1861, according to the Census. At that time she was aged 34. I'm wondering if there is a family connection. The 1851 Census showed a William Francis aged 7, visited Robert. We are assuming that WIlliam was Elizabeth's son and Robert's nephew. Can you confirm?

Thank you,

Jane Campbell

  • Hi Jane

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    There is an Elizabeth Campbell baptised in the parish of Templemichael, Co. Longford on 26th Feb 1826 to a father William and a mother Frances Tanner. Her father was a publican. This family were church of Ireland. Other children included:

    Charles 1827, Margaret 1828, Francis 1833 and Mary Ann 1834. 

    I hope you find this useful. However, if Robert was Elizabeth's son her per-marriage name was not Campbell rather it was her husband's family name?

    Best wishes
