Thank you for finding and sharing this.  I don't subscribe to FindMyPast so don't have access to the 1921 census. Do you know whether this shows her with her family?  I presume she will be out to work by then.

Playing around with the search.
Doris Mary Jones is a servant, a housemaid.
Head is Thomas Kemp, born 1868. His wife is Mary Evelyn Kemp, born 1878.

Might be the Thomas Kemp at Cogshall Hall (directory)

I have managed to speak to a member of the Pearl's family and now have some information about her family.  In case other family members read this post below is what I have learned.

Pearl's mother was Doris Mary Jones and she was born in Montgomeryshire, Berriew, I think. Birth registered Forden Vol 11b Page 157. Her parents were George and Ellen Jones, who married Q2 1905, Forden Vol 11b Page 313. Ellen's mmn was Beedles, b.1878 Berriew and her parents (Cornelius and Jane) lived in Berriew. George Jones was born in Kerry, Montgomeryshire in 1882. His parents were John and Ann Jones.

By 1911 George, Ellen and Doris had moved to Carlton Market Bosworth, Nuneaton. a

By 1921 George and Ellen are in Aston by Budworth, Bucklow Reg District and Doris is in service at Cogshall, Northwich.

Doris marries Arthur Stubbs in 1926 and Pearl is born in 1927.  They are all living in Dunsdale Gardens, Frodsham in 1939.

George and Ellen are living in Oakmere, near Delamere in 1939. Apparently Pearl sometimes lived with them during WW2, presumably it was safer for her than living in Frodsham.

I'm now satisfied that I can add these family members to the tree.
