The only other possibility I can see is a marriage in Chorlton 1901- Margaret Ellen Reed to Thomas H Park.
1911 has a Margaret Ellen Park aged 31 yrs living Chorlton but I can't see a Thomas Park in the indexes to match.

Thanks, I have found that marriage too and in 1911 I think Thomas Henry Park is down as Harry Park with Margaret Ellen and a few children. I am looking in to this further.  Margaret Ellen is on the 1881 as born Cheetham Hill 1879 and as this Margaret Ellen is born Manchester I also need to check out where Cheetham Hill is.

I am still trying to find Ellen 1857 in 1891 and 1901 and am looking in to remarriages as I haven't found a death for Ellen Reed.

Hi again,

I can't see Ellen either in 1891 or 1901 nor a death/marriage  :-\

Cheetham Hill is a district of Manchester. I think the family were in Crumpsall in 1881.
You can see they are next to each other on the map.

Rawtenstall where the Margaret Ellen was in 1901 is quite some distance away in Lancashire and the Morris girls were living in Bradford, Manchester in 1891 which, if you look at the map, is round about where Ancoats is (on the map just near the large 'Manchester'.
Just found out that this link only links you to Google maps- you will have to enter Cheetham Hill.  ::)

The marriage on the other hand took place in Whalley Range which is the other side of Manchester (south on the map).
Hope all this makes sense  ;)

It may be worth trying the marriage certificate.
