Elizabeth Babbage
(1829-1894)

Elizabeth Babbage (later Elizabeth Saturley) was the youngest of the six known children of John Babbage and his wife Ann Norman of Holcombe Rogus, Devon, England.

Elizabeth married John Saturley - a Woolcomber, later a Woolsorter - of Wellington, Somerset, England - a job he held for about 40 years. He was most likely employed by Fox Brothers & Co., a mill that continues to produce luxury cloth today.

Together they settled down to raise a family of eight children - six sons and two daughters (although their second daughter died in infancy).

Elizabeth appears to have pre-deceased her husband by about three years.
