Death date Yorkshire Monumental Inscriptions:

"In affectionate remembrance of / ELIZABETH / the beloved wife of / ROBERT COPLEY / who died October 10th 1878 / aged 45 years / Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from / henceforth, yea saith the spirit that they may / rest from their labours. Rev. chap XIV verse XIII / Also of the above ROBERT COPLEY / who died July 25th 1894 / aged 58 years / at evening time it shall be light Zachariah 14.7."

Elizabeth's daughter Annie Eliza (who married John Watkin) names two successive children Robert Copley Watkin (after her grandfather) and Rachel Camsell Watkin. Presumably the latter is named after Annie Eliza's grandmother.

Joseph also matches the name of Elizabeth's father on the marriage certificate to Robert Copley.

As her mother remarries (John Mellord), Elizabeth is the daughter listed in the 1841 and 1851 census for John & Rachel Mellord
This is confirmed by Emma Mellords (also in the census) as a witness for her marriage to Robert Copley.
