     Note regarding John Shewring and Elizabeth Shewring: The parish register shows two different residential addresses, "Water Street" and "Great Russell Street." I believe this reflects the family moving between the 1840 and 1842 birth dates of John and Elizabeth, respectively, (Rick Moffat, 11 April 1842 at Birmingham, Warwickshire, England.)4

Elizabeth Shewring1

F, #21871, b. 14 March 1842
Father*John Shewring2,3,1 b. c 1811, d. 29 Jan 1865
Mother*Harriet Groves2,3,1 b. 15 Mar 1814, d. Mar 1897
Last Edited10 Apr 2024
     She was born on 14 March 1842 at Birmingham, Warwickshire, England.2,1,3 According to entry No. 3169 of the parish register,she was baptized on 11 April 1842 at St. Phillips, Birmingham, Warwickshire, England. Her brother John was baptized the same day.1
     Note regarding John Shewring and Elizabeth Shewring: The parish register shows two different residential addresses, "Water Street" and "Great Russell Street." I believe this reflects the family moving between the 1840 and 1842 birth dates of John and Elizabeth, respectively, (Rick Moffat, 11 April 1842 at Birmingham, Warwickshire, England.)4
     Elizabeth Shewning appeared on the 1851 British Census of Birmingham 16, at Warwickshire, England, in the household of her parents, John and Harriet Shewning.3
     Elizabeth Sherwring appeared on the 1861 British Census of Birmingham, at Warwickshire, England, at Lady Wood, District 5, in the household of her parents, John and Harriet Sherwring, and she was listed as a Pen Slitter.2
