Hi Sister Barbara

This is not much, but working up to the present day is near impossible unless you have many hours to check the complete BMD's at ancestry.com.

I looked at the Marriage index and found Marcus & Ethel -Q1-1913-8e-839-Bolton.

I next checked from 1913-20 the Birth index and only found 1 possible child.

James W Shorrock (Mothers Maiden name Whalley) -Q2-1913-8c-761-Bolton.

Going by that she was pregnant before marriage.

Sorry its only a bit.

Regards
Ken
