  1. 1862 2 Queen Street, Woolwich, London (address at marriage) Father Benjamin DIXON - Tailor

    1874 Kenilworth Lodge, Blackwall Lane, East Greenwich, Greenwich, London (at baptism of Mabel)
    It would appear that Eli married twice but on his second marriage he has declared himself to be a Batchelor, we have not been able to find any of the family after the baptism Mabel. We feel that either, he died and Lizzie (Elizabeth) remarried and the children took the name of their new father, or it was a bigamous marriage and he was found out, so possibly the children then took the name of their mother, or they emigrated somewhere which we have not found as yet. We feel certain about the two marriages as to be called Eli Nathaniel DIXON is unusual (the only one to come up on Ancestry) but to have a father called Benjamin DIXON on both and both as a Tailor we think makes the coincidence too great to be two people.
  2. 1862 2 Queen Street, Woolwich, London (address at marriage) Father Jonathan WOLFE - Farmer
  3. 1861 109 Newmarket Road, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. Living with the family was an Alice Knott POWELL granddaughter age 2 born Ikleton, ?

    1871 108 Newmarket Road, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. Lizzie was at home but shown as married with the surname DIXON. She is shown as being born in Greenwich, Kent, but was born in Cambridge, so perhaps was living in Greenwich in 1871. Also at this address is a Nellie BOUCHER, granddaughter aged 4 born Somertown,  Middlesex and a Frank Newman DIXON grandson Age 3 months born Greenwich, Kent.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
