3. | Elizabeth Taylor was born in 1815 in Middlewich (daughter of William Taylor and Hannah Done); died about Oct 1882 in Northwich. Other Events:
Notes: With father in 1851 census as Elizabeth Hough, soldier's wife. She was probably unaware that John, absent for nine years, was still alive when she married John Minshall as Betty Hough that year. Age given as 68 in death record. Notes: Not known if John and Elizabeth formally married, though there is a possible record on 14.3.1836 in Cheadle (Cheshire Bishop's Transcripts, Ancestry). This is some distance from their known residences, but would have been seven months after John deserted the Army and he may have deliberately chosen an unlikely location There is no evidence of another John or Elizabeth Hough around Cheadle in the 1841 census.
