Notes for Eliza Henrietta Broad
m. (1) John Francis Wetherall, (2) William Elsey.

Her death as a ‘Wetherall’ cannot be unequivocally found on FreeBMD between Q1 of 1860 and Q4 of 1862.  Did she re-marry?  One or two candidates:

Surname   First name(s)      District   Vol  Page
Marriages Sep 1847   (>99%)
CRAGG Charles St James Westminster 1 126
Currey John Edmond St James 1 126
ELSEY William    St James 1 126
FRY Lucy Sarah St James 1 126
HIGHT John    St James Westminster 1 126
JOYES Mary    St James Westminster 1 126
Unwin Mary    St James 1 126
Weatherall Eliza Hanrietta    St James 1 126
WEATHERALL Eliza Henrietta    St James 1 126

McCreay’s book reports that William Elsey (d. 1879) was her second husband - so the above is the right record.  And her death record is:

______________________________________________

I wonder if she was the daughter of General Frederick Wetherall’s second wife and her first husband, Major Richard Broad?

Yes, is the answer, she was the daughter of Elizabethe Anne Mair who had m. Richard Broad.
