If Mavis has the right one, her father was a coalminer according the the 1891 census. Could you check his occupation on the marriage certificate.

Thanks Eddie.
So it doesn't look as though it is the Elizabeth Dyer in Scotland unfortunately unless she was unsure of her father's occupation. It's a difficult one!

Not sure of the relevance, but 61 Percy Road was split - 2 households in 1911, and both men appearing on 1912 ER at same address. The other family were Selly, head was Thomas age 48.

She may have boarded with one of them?
