Missing from 1891 and 1901 census

[vinpip]

Hi there all

I keep coming back to my research periodically to see if I can tie up anymore loose ends. I've come across a couple of census gaps and can't for the life of me seem to find the person anywhere.

Ellen Clowes born 1857 Onecote, Leek Staffs
                  probable death 1935 Fylde, Lancashire

I have her in the 1861, 1871, 1881 with her parents (Elisha & Emma) in staffs. 1881 - Cheddleton.

I also have her in 1911 in Oldham, Lancs as a single cook

Can anybody find her in 1891 and 1901?

I'd be most grateful indeed

Hello,
1901 2632 /12/3

Shows a 22 yr old Ellen Clowes, a servant in Croxden, Staffordshire  but 1891 shows Ellen Clowes born abt 1880 daughter of Caleb so perhaps not, sorry.

Thanks heywood

She's too young anyway but thanks for trying.

I'm at a loss at what to try next!

I searched with first name second and place of birth but no joy.

There is an Ellen Clowes who marries in March 1891 on Free BMD - so thinking out of the box ...  maybe she married, it didn't work out and she decided to use maiden name again.

Beavances thanks that gives me another avenue to try. Will have a look into that idea
