Dymond, Elizabeth

Family

Little is known about Elizabeth Dymond. If anyone can help us we would be grateful for any further information.

The most likely candidate among the Elizabeth Dymonds in the public record was born in Bodmin in 1842, the daughter of John and Ann Dymond. John was a shoemaker, and his daughter Elizabeth appears in the 1861 Census as a bootbinder.

A common cause of female preachers ceasing to travel is marriage, and three people called Elizabeth Dymond married during 1870, but on investigation it has become evident that none of them is the right age to have been an intinerant preacher from 1861 to 1869. No Elizabeth Dymond is recorded as dying during 1869-1870.
