Hi - sorry you haven't had a reply to this one.

Do you know when Mary married first and where?  Do you know when/ if she left the Isle of Man?

There is this possibility:

SAUNDERS Mary Ann serv U 19 - housemaid - Isle of Man Castletown

In the household of Charlotte CRAWFORD, landed proprietor, Douglas Rd, Malew, IOM

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

Now I am answering my own questions!  ;D

Marriages seem to be

Sep 1869 West Derby, Lancs to David SAMUELS (8b 639)

1885 in Newport Mon to James CURTIS.

Will have another look for her on the mainland.

WOW!!!
What a lot of work you did on my behalf! Thank you so much, this lady has been a bit of a mystery for a long time, Saunders/Sanders being quite a common name.
Very much appreciated - if you ever have any queries re Australian records, maybe I can return the favour.
Happy hunting,
Lyn
