elizabeth kennedy born about 1861 in Kilkenny living in Accrington lancashire , the 1911 census is free to view on ancestry at the moment looks like she was born in Purlarkey/Purlakey ?? can't quite make it out  but i cant find any town or villages that could match..... any help?

Do you have the name and occupation for Elizabeth's father from her marriage record ?

your link requires membership of ancestry, and there are restrictions on lookups of the 1911 English census, so dont think you're allowed share it that way. Can you post an image of just that part of the census ?
