Hi - this is probably just a co-incidence BUT

Had a look for Pricillas in Cardiganshire 1891 and found this one:

Priscilla JENKINS H Wid 63 Grocer born London, London
Mary Ann OWENS dau M 29 Mariner's wife born Cardigan St Mary's

Address, 20 William Street, Cardigan St Mary's

Any chance JENKINS was Elizabeth Jane's maiden name?  Sadly she isn't with this family or it might have been a breakthrough!

regards

Incidentally, the transcription says "JENINS" should you need to find it again.

hi arranroots,
                   thats very kind of you to look that up for me, but pricilla would have been about 35 ish as her daughter was born in 1885? also the daughter married twice ,first to a jenkins then to a williams,and i am not sure pricillas last name was williams.
roumour has it that she owned greengrocer shops in london.
i know pricilla died at dovey cottage between1930-40 and i have been in touch with the ceredigion gov and they helped a bit but i have not heard from them since my last email to them.
i will check out that priscilla, you never know could be her mother
 once again thanks for your time,much appreciated
