Think I've found Ellen...

seeing the bootmaker link, I went through the 1914 Trade directory and found only one Pocock bootmaker. Frederick Pocock.
Checking back on the censuses.... he has a daughter named Ellen Matilda who was born 1889 Westminster. Right age.
Ellen M Pocock married William R Cox 1916
Ellen M Cox death in 1965 is registered in Wycombe where Stanley moved to....

Still not sure where they were hiding Stanley in 1911 but he could have been nursed out or something.

It was quite usual for girls who were baptised Ellen to be called Nellie.  It was the usual familiar name of that period.
