If your great-nan is now dead, put on all details from the marriage certificate,
and the birth certificate.

Tell what you know of Gr-great-nan. (birth date, name, any marriage? death.
perhaps something can be gleaned from this info. Keep it short and factual. That'll be the most helpful thing.

We can also use witness names. What else do you know of Elizabeth Harding?

Pauline

PS. There's a possible lead in 1881:

Elizh. Harding   2y in Kirkdale, daughter of John J(oseph)?

and in 1901 22y still in Kirkdale.

Let us know what else you have.
