Problems.
I can find no matching record on Free BMD for her birth. Not important, but apparent absence is intriguing.
I can find no record of Pearce/ Groves marriage. Quite likely none took place but interesting Eliza declared herself "married" in 1911, rather than "widowed" and seems to have retained Groves name for remainder of her life.
I can find no record of birth of daughter, Elsie.(I have doubts about Portsmouth location). Not Elsie May Groves, Portsea 1898
I cannot find Elsie in 1911, nor record of earlier death.
Any help with filling in any of these gaps will be greatly appreciated.
