Nothing on the Cambridgeshire Baptismal Index for Elizabeth DESBOROUGH (or variants) at Over abt 1760. Nearest I can find are:

Elizabeth DESBOROUGH 1750 at Little Eversden
Elizabeth DESBOROUGH 1752 at Little Eversden
Elizabeth DESBOROUGH 1754 at Leverington

Was Over where she married?

[whdsn]

hi peter
yes she married alexander gifford 9 sep 1783 in over

[Peter Goodey]

she married alexander gifford 9 sep 1783 in over

OK. In the marriage register was she described as a spinster of this parish?

If she were shown as "of the parish of x", we would have a useful clue.

Hi janet
Do you know who the parents are for Elizabeth DESBOROUGH 1754 at Leverington and Elizabeth DISBROW 1750 at Grantchester. Thanks wayne

Hi Wayne,

Unfortunately, no parents names and only the year is shown on the Cambs FHS Baptismal Index. However, Hugh Wallis's IGI site shows the baptism at Grantchester on 23 September 1750 of an Elizabeth DISBOROUGH, parents William & Elizabeth. Nothing for the Elizabeth baptised at Leverington though, sorry.

Janet
