George's death is noted in newspapers of the time as he apparently hung himself. His wife found him. No mention of daughter. Address at time, 579 Garscube Road.

Ah, I see some fellow rootschatters posted some of this info a number of years ago:

Redoubt, if you are in that thread under a different name, it is always helpful to post links to old posts to save duplication of effort on research.

No problem. Have you had a read at the other thread now, though, to see if anything there is if help or to contact those who posted on it and who may be able to assist you?

yes just finished reading it. There is a lot of good info from the older posts. Not a great deal about the missing Elizabeth but I will persevere. Thanks to all who posted today.
