Hello again, Danny,
Lostwithiel is only 1.4 miles from St Winnows
and there one finds Elizabeth Haly chr 1773, d/o John and Elizabeth.
They also had Philippa 1768, Ann 1770, John 1776, Mary 1779, and William
1781.
Did your Elizabeth have children? With any luck the names may match up.

I hope this helps.

best wishes
Lorraine
