Hi Pam, This Eliza seems to fit but is older than the Eliza I've got. Wonder if she lied about her age when she married John? I've got her as 2 years older than him. He was born 1868 +/- 1yr.
Thanks Alison

Hi Julie, Thanks for the tip. Will try that. Alison

This might be Louisa. I have search for a Powell/Leech marriage and not found one.
