Have you considered that she may have married?  Unfortunately there are several Mary Davies marriages in Wigan between 1871-1881, you'd need to check them for possible spouses and then check those surnames against the 1881 census   :-\

Not sure, I know it's 16 in Scotland, 18 here in England or 16 with written consent.  Will try to find out for you, can't have you arguing with gran!

Think you're both right, it was 21, but you could still marry under 21 if you had parental consent
