Note: There is no proof that this is the correct entry. Eliza, daughter of Francis (and Rebecca) PARKER, was aged 4 in 1841, 14 in 1851, and is possibly the 23 year old servant to John CARVER at the Ferry Boat House, Wilford, Nottinghamshire, in 1861. The certificate of her marriage to William PYATT can be found online on www.ancestry.co.uk - Ancestry Trees, confirming that she was the daughter of the late Francis PARKER. In the 1871 census William was said to be 39 years old, Eliza understating her age by 3 or 4 years.
