Sarah Ann Crawshaw b.29 Sept 1885 in Swinton Lancs

I'm trying to find if Sarah Ann Crawshaw (my relative) married Henry Pimlott (b.1885 Manchester) and moved to the USA prior to 1911. I can't find a marriage for them and don't have access to any US records or the correct passenger lists.

Sarah Ann's father was William Crawshaw who was a coal miner and the chances are that if they were married in this country, it could have been at St Peter Swinton. I've looked at the parish clerks online but there's nothing there.

If anyone has access to US records, I'd be very grateful. The link with Henry came from a tree on another website which showed (possibly) Sarah and Henry living in Akron, Ohio.
thanks
