Surnames: Eplett, Madden, Eggleton
I'm looking for information on my great great grandmother, Eliza EPLETT, born March 16, 1841 somewhere in England. She came to Hastings County, Ontario, Canada some time before 1860; on March 22, 1860 she married Abram MADDEN.

I found the following information in a transcription of the 1851 census of Hastings County, Ontario, and a check of the land records indicates that Samuel EGGLETON and Abram MADDEN 's father, Robert,were neighbours, so I'm pretty sure that this is the correct Eliza EPLETT.

Name;Born; Religion; Age; Sex; Marital Status
Eggleton,Samuel;ENG;WM;49;M;M
Eggleton, Janie;ENG;WM;49;F;M
Wicket, Rich;ENG;WM;15;M;S
Eplet, Eliza Eggleton;ENG;WM;11;F;S

Since Eliza's middle name appears to be Eggleton I'd assume there must be some relationship, but I don't know what. Perhaps Samuel and Janie are an aunt and uncle?

I have a sampler that Eliza stitched, and at the bottom, in careful cross stitch, is "Eliza Eplett's Sampler Wrought Under Miss Hamilton's Instructions A.D. 1850" I'd really love to learn more about her. Any information, suggestions or hints would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks!
