Charles + Elizabeth GARRETT. Elizabeth (daughter of Job GARRET and Anne MOGER) was born in 1781 in West Lavington; was christened on 29 Apr 1781 in Longbridge Deverill, Wiltshire; died on 23 Dec 1846 in Fovant, Wiltshire; was buried on 23 Dec 1846 in Fovant Parish Church, Wiltshire.

IGI

Birth:
There's a tree on ancestry that states that our Elizabeth Garrett is actually a lady called Elizabeth Davis from West Lavington. She married a William Garrett in Maddington. They had a number of children including a Jane Garrett born 1808. This could be our Jane and could explain why she is not listed in the births for Fovant. I have provisionally put this new data on to my Ancestry tree in the hope that ancestors can see it and comment. Best regards Adney
