Notes
Eliza was a widow when she married Albert in 1896. Her maiden name was Robinson.
Eliza died January 29 1914 age 41 years. She is buried in a common grave at Welford Road Civic Cemetery Leicester. Plot no: A 860 C.
She was buried in the grave of five children:
1. John Beedham aged 1 month
2. Ellen Beedham aged 2 1/2 years
3.Emma Beedham aged 1 year
4.Thomas Beedham aged 3 years
5.Charlotte Beedham aged 4 months
Eliza died leaving her 8 children behind and I find it in a way quite comforting to know that she is buried with children.
having 8 children to look after I can understand how Albert couldn't afford a private plot.
At the time of Eliza's death her family lived at 128 Greshan Street leicester.
In 1911 Albert's occupation was....shoe maker
