As she was born before the start of civil registration of births (1864) you will need to search for church records (if they still exist). To do so you need to know the family's religion and where they lived (parish if not actual parish not just a county). Do you know where Ellen died? If it was someplace like Australia for example there might be clues on her death certificate.

As I mentioned you will need to search for church records to find her baptism.

This site is very good but cost you to see your records but nothing to search. and at the moment they are still only € 5 normal price €10
