Eliza GOTHAM
Set As Default Person -
Name Eliza GOTHAM Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Jun Q 1849 Stoke Sub-District, Stoke on Trent Reg Dist, Staffordshire, England
- From the 1851 census where shown as aged 1 (although 1861 census shows as aged 13)
GRO ref: Gotham, Eliza q2 1849 Stoke On T RD 17 229; GRO online indes shows mother's maiden name as Cobden
The births of Elizas were registered in Stoke on Trent RD in both the first and second quarters of 1847.
The other Eliza was baptised on March 11, so her birth was most likely registered in quarter one; this Eliza being shown as aged 1 in the 1851 census implies she was born after 30 March 1849 (or she would have been aged 2 at the time of the census), i.e. she would seem to be the one whose birth was registered in the second quarter.

- GRO ref: Gething, Henry to Cobden, Ann q1 1847 Newcastle L RD 17 115
(Newcastle T written next to Ann's name, and although the vol. is clearly XVII 2 transcribers had transcribed it as XXV at the time I looked at FreeBMD, 2 Jan 2015)
Actual date and place from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 2 Jan 2015).
Henry and his father's surname was written as Gething, I guess in error.
Strangely, he appears to have signed 'Henry Gotham', then crossed out the Gotham and written Gething.
