Biography
Elizabeth Verney was born about 1831 at Gloucestershire, England. Her parents were Richard Verney & Susanna (Fletcher) Verney.
1841
"General Register Office: 1841 Census Returns database, FreeCEN (https://www.freecen.org.uk/search_records/64f7ba27f493fdbfaf3841a1 : viewed 16 Jan 2024), Elizabeth VERNEY in household of Richard VERNEY, Rags Row, Gloucestershire, England; from 1841 "England, Scotland and Wales census," database and images; citing The National Archives HO 107/366B, Folio 6, Page 7, Schedule 0, The National Archives, Kew, Surrey.
Elizabeth Verney married William Wakeford about 1850.
Elizabeth (Verney) Wakeford died on 18 March 1902 at Bloomfield, Blandford near Murrurundi, New South Wales, Australia. [1]
"Mrs. W. Wakeford." The Murrurundi Times and Liverpool Plains Gazette (NSW : 1874 - 1907; 1926 - 1929) 22 March 1902
Mrs. W. Wakeford
We have also to record, with regret, the death of Mrs. William Wakeford, mother of Mrs. B. Haydon, of Bloomfield, Blandford, who died somewhat suddenly about 4 o'clock on Tuesday morning last, at the residence of Mr. Haydon, Bloomfield.
Mrs. Wakefield was the widow of Mr. William Wakeford, who was the contractor for the construction of the railway line from Murrurundi to Willow Tree, which was opened in August, 1877, and was a resident of this district for about 25 years.
Mrs. Wakeford, who we understand had reached the age of 80 years, had been indisposed for some little time, but it was not anticipated that her death was so near.
Her remains were forwarded to Sydney by the mail train on Wednesday morning,
for interment beside those of her late husband.
