living with her parents and older brother Charles. She is now aged 13,
and they are now living at Upper Marsh Lambeth. Eliza Harris married Joseph Thomas on 4th April 1858 at St Mary's Parish Church Lambeth. The certificate above shows she is the daughter of William Harris, a mason, and she was living at the Harris Family home in South Street Lambeth. Her husband Joseph is shown as the son of Thomas Thomas, a carman of Granby Place Lambeth, which is presumably where the couple met when the Harris's lived there.
