When you say ‘anything’ does that mean you have nothing?

You can access 1901 and 1911 on Family Search if you do not have a subscription to other sites.

Have you looked for a marriage for her?  www.freebmd.org.uk

Have you looked for her on the 1939 register?

Did you establish her mothers maiden name as there is more than one birth entry for that name?

Freebmd shows marriage of parents 1890 - maiden name Carter but GRO online shows it as Cater on both births

I don’t think this is right. You have the correct family but that is not father’s occupation. It is the same as 1901.

Was she a witness to any of the weddings?
Where did Elsie marry?
When did the parents die?
Was that in Birmingham/Aston?

Her baptism shows her birth date as 25th March 1897.
You could search 1939 register for a likely entry, perhaps.
