Civil registration of births marriges and deaths did not strt in England and Wales until 1st July 1837, and later in Ireland and Scotland so you are not likly to find a birth for Eli. You may be luck and find a baptisum record on FamilySearch though. Do you know when Eli married and to who??? This will act as a guide to find a record. If not were there any children? Start from the eldest and work back, if this fails work forward from the eldest child until Eli's death. |
