Well, I think I've found Edward Disley's wife Hannah in 1861, but not his daughter Mary Ellen. I think Hannah is living with in Aston, Birmingham as the wife of William Cornick. The eldest child with them, Edward Cornick, seems to be Edward Disley, but the births of the three younger ones were registered as Cornick (or variants), mmn Lloyd, the first as early as 1855.

William & Hannah were married in Birmingham in 1866, with Hannah Disley calling herself a widow (definitely the lady who married Edward Disley, as her father is Thomas Lloyd in each case - a button maker in one, button presser in the other).
So Mary Ellen Disley (born 1853) is somewhere else - at school, with grandparents?
