  	Elizabeth was the younger sister of Margaret, Henry Fern's first wife. They were married in Manchester Holy Trinity Church at Hulme. According to Alan Eatock's account, the 1871 census states that Elizabeth lived with her brother-in-law Henry Fern and his family at 28 Robert St., Ardwick, Manchester. She was about 20 years old at the time and her sister Margaret had died about 4 years earlier. Henry had seven children at the time of the 1871 census, the eldest being 17 or 18. Alan Eatock states, "He was, however, incorrectly listed in the 1871 census as married. (Henry did not marry Elizabeth Pybus until 1876.)" Alan Eatock's account shows two of the three children born to Elizabeth and Henry Fern arrived before the marriage in 1876.
