That looks much better Heywood and would explain why Elsie married in Lancashire  :)

So my Elsie could be born to Martha and Thomas Owens ??maybe she was born before they got married ??
Is there a marriage for Martha and Thomas Owens ?

I think this is the right one.

I was going to post this earlier ::)

Here is 1911 index from Family Search

Elsie May Owens 6 yrs b Walkden, Lancs

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XWT1-KMB

On another index, she is Elsie May Forrester

There is a likely birth though in Lancashire but Martha, mother is born Whitchurch. :-\
This one seems to be the one. Ive Beeb informed it was Elsie's mum who was born in Shropshire and Elsie herself in Walkden

Cheers

Marriage Elsie M. Forrest & Thomas Hodgkis 1925 Bolton Registry Office or Registrar attended. Elsie's surname is Forrest on Lancashire BMD index. They married either at registry office or at a Non-Conformist or R.C. chapel, not in C. of E.
11 Hodgkis births registered in Farnworth 1926-1945 with mother's maiden name Forester.

Marriage isn't on LANOPC (Lancashire Online Parish Clerks website). There are 2 baptisms at Methodist church in Farnworth which may be of 2 of the children. I'm not naming them in case they are alive. Perhaps marriage was in a Methodist chapel.

There is no mother’s maiden name for Elsie May and the baptism I gave only gives her mother.
Martha and Thomas Owens did not marry until 1907.
