Looks like Elizabeth Ann's sister,Mary Winifred. married (or didn't-I can't seem to find it) Jack LAWSON about 1900.
 "Bessie" was born WRIGHT.

The WRIGHT family in 1881 are headed by father Edward and mother Amelia in Ruabon.

On the 1901 census "Bessie" is 4yrs old and described as Bessie WRIGHT niece.
Since Herbert's wife was a WRIGHT,I'd guess that the relationship would be on her side.There's a GRO birth
WRIGHT, ELIZABETH  no mmn       -

Have a look at William and Hannah HINTON and children
living in Leadenham in 1891.

Going by the GRO births her maiden name was Harrison.
