My Great x3 Aunt Eliza (1856 - 1869) was an elder sister of my Great Great Grandmother Bessie Staddon Edworthy (nee Nott) (1859 - 1919).
Eliza was born around 1856 in Bampton, Devon, to William Nott, an agricultural labourer, and Grace Nott (nee Cobley) (about 28), a wool weaver.
Eliza's birth doesn't appear to have been registered; however, she was baptised on 28th December 1856, in Bampton, Devon. At the time of her birth, the family lived on the High Street.
Eliza was the fifth of nine children (four sons and five daughters):
- William 1850 - after 1861
- John Henry 1852 - after 1861
- Frederick 1853 - 1927 (74)
- Mary Emma 1855 - after 1871
- Eliza Lydia 1856 - 1869 (12)
- Bessie Staddon 1859 - 1919 (about 60)
- Walter 1860 - 1916 (55)
- Jessie Rose 1864 - 1947 (83)
- Agnes 1866 - 1924 (57)
When Eliza was very young, the family moved from Bampton to Morchard Bishop. There, the family can be found on the 1861 Census.

Sadly, in Oct/Nov/Dec 1869, Eliza passed away, aged twelve (nearly thirteen), in the district of Crediton.
