so need to search for marriages that may fit.

yes this is the marriage for her mum &dad john mead & elizabeth snow but i would like ellens marriage

any more clues on Ellen

do you know that she married, where she might have ended up living, any children?

I can't find anything that fits yet, sorry!

no i dont know if she married she had two sisters one stayed in leigh the others moved to london

thanks for your help the collins option is possible 1911 says she married but no husband on cencus also gives 3 years married but cant find on bmd her stepfathers surname was collins plot thickens

Interesting to see on the Collins 1911 that she has put her age down as 34, then crossed it out and put 31yrs.
34 would give date of birth as 1877 so I agree it is a possible although I can't find a marriage that fits.

If 1911 census says she is 3 years married, then what name has she got then ? Mrs Ellen ??????

collins
