[2] St Neot parish registers. There are other Othrams recorded in the St Neot parish registers who were probably connected with Elizabeth, for example Walter Othram married in 1642. Elizabeth may be the Elizabeth, daughter of John Autrom, who was baptised on 10 Feb 1614/15 at St Neot.

[10] Elizabeth is named in some of her children’s baptism entries in the St Neot parish registers, including that of Walter in 1676. There is a gap in the marriages recorded in the St Neot parish registers between Oct 1674 and Nov 1676. An account of the Hodge family has not yet been compiled, but the will of her father Edmund or Edward Hodge is Kresen Kernow, AP/H/2031. Elizabeth was living in 1721 when she was granted administration of her husband’s estate: Kresen Kernow, AP/B/3063. She was probably the Elizabeth Bound buried on 29 May 1730 at Golant.

[24] The will of Martha Harris of Warleggan, spinster, written and proved in 1735, mentions, among others, her sister Honour Bound; her nephew John Bound and his daughter Elizabeth; Elizabeth Willcock the daughter of her sister Honour; and Annis Udy the daughter of her sister Honour (Kresen Kernow, AP/H/4624). The St Neot parish registers record the burial of an Elizabeth, daughter of Walter Bound, on 29 Nov 1700. This could be another daughter of Walter and Honor, but the chronology would be tight with their marriage in Apr 1700 and another daughter baptised in Feb 1700/01. The Elizabeth buried in Nov 1700 could have been a daughter of the Walter Bound who was the father of the Walter married to Honor Harris.

[26] Golant parish registers. The register gives the date of burial as 31 Nov 1766, which is obviously wrong. There is a chance it should be 1 Dec 1766.
