I want to say a massive thank you to all who contributed to the above thread in June 2010! After I purchased the marriage cert of Eliza Fielding, I totally forgot to order the marriage that Phoenix found of a Walter King to Elizabeth Fielding that was a possible theory.

Well, after having a very odd dream last week whereby I purchased this cert, I decided I should buy it and it arrived today......It is my great x 2 grandparents :D

The ages are correct, the occupation is correct for Walter, father for Walter is exactly as it should be, and Elizabeth's who I suspected it was; Robert Rowland. The only odd but amusing part of it is that they give different addresses :rolleyes:

So now I can more than likely assume that Eliza Fielding is Elizabeth's daughter to her first husband. I do wonder now when Elizabeth took up with Walter and pretended to be married.

My mother was born 1928 and my grandies married in 1955. Took me years to track down that marriage....lol
