Thanks everyone, unfortunately it hasn't helped us find the marriage between her and John Clarkson  :(

Was she in the workhouse in 1881 census (birth seems to be Aug 1881, few months after census)? Or was she with hubby? Might help narow down time of marriage.
Do you know why she gave birth in the workhouse - was she widowed during pregnancy? Is there a death for hubby? Looks like a case of building up a picture of what was going on from a variety of angles, rather than just finding the marriage. that's what makes it all so much fun!!!!!!! (and time consuming..... and expensive....and frustrating..... BUT FUN)

  Tracey is now going to order the birth certificate of one of the daughters since Al managed to find the reference.
