The post on Rootschat seems as if you weren't too sure if Elizabeth/Bessie were sisters, so back tracking to a certain extent to known events.

I have Mary A Holland, born 1835 as Elizabeth's and Harriet's Mother as per 1871 census. RG10 piece 546, folio 54, page 16. 24 Stepney Causeway. However, I stand to be corrected as only an amatuer :-)

My Grandmother Alice Brooks parents were James William Brooks and Harriett Brooks (nee Holland) Harriett was born in St Saviour, Southwark in 1863 Her sister Elizabeth or Eliza Holland (nickname Bessie) emigrated to Canada as a young woman probably in her early 20's and married a sheep farmer in Toronto as far as I know. They were alive in 2nd world war and sent food parcels. Then there were some fires in the area they lived and never heard from sgain. I did post a while back on rootchat and John Henry Metters is a possible spouse. However, not sure that Elizabeths Holland's parents were George and Elizabeth so would rule this out?http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=126638.0 :-0
