  	From PR entry (thanks to Rose Norton who extracted the details as a GOONS marriage challenge) GRO ref: GOTHAM, Frederick John E to Briden, Elizabeth q3 1887 Woburn RD 3b 673The 1911 census shows that Frederick and Elizabeth had had 6 children, of whom 5 were still living. Since 5 were with them it was clearly their daughter Elizabeth who had died (probably by 1901 as she was not with them then)
