Any information on Elizabeth Harrison who married (12.6.1867)

******
There is the following baptism on the IGI:
bap. 21 June 1846 Horton-in-Ribblesale, James, son of James & Betty CAPSTICK
There is no marriage on the IGI for James and Betty.
The only likely baptism on the IGI for James Snr. is:
bap. 3 Oct 1811 at Clapham, James son of James and Margaret CAPSTICK.
James CAPSTICK marr. Margaret ATKINSON 1798 at Clapham and had the
following children baptised at Clapham:
1799 William
1804 Elizabeth
1807 Thomas
1809 Ellen
1811 James
1813 Richard
1815 John
1817 Felix
1819 Charles
1824 William
It would be a good idea to look at the 1851 Horton-in-Ribblesdale and
Clapham Census to pick up ages and birthplaces of James and Betty. Also
the St Catherine's indexes for the marriage of James CAPSTICK and Betty
sometime around 1844/45.
