| Elizabeth Swarbrick probably never married. She became a teacher and taught for many years at
St. Mary's Roman Catholic School in Lea, Lancashire. At that time, Catholic school teachers were normally not allowed to
marry. In their later years, Elizabeth's parents William and Ellen moved to Lea, near their daughter. After her father's death, her mother may have moved into the school house with Elizabeth, where she died in 1909. NEEDS COMPLETE REWRITE! |

| 1: | Gemma Swarbrick, wife of Joseph Vincent Swarbrick once taught at St. Mary's. A few years ago the school was visited by an elderly ex-pupil. When he was introduced to "Mrs" Swarbrick he told Gemma that his teacher all those years ago was a "Miss" Swarbrick. Gemma didn't know it at the time, but the Miss Swarbrick the old gentleman referred to was her husband's Great-Great Aunt Elizabeth. |
