Have had no luck finding Elsie Coghlan, registered Mar 1910, in Blackburn. In the 1911 census she appears with her mother Sarah (nee Hibbert), a widow.
Sarah was the widow of George Henry Coghlan who had died in 1908. In 1911 she is living with Richard S. Heathcote as his servant. He is listed as married, and had mistakenly entered his number of children, those alive, as had Sarah.
Sarah had just the one child, Elsie, obviously not Coghlan's child, but possibly Heathcote's, who was taken to court in 1909 by his wife Elizabeth, claiming desertion and abuse.
Elsie, as Hibbert, is with her mother in 1921, no sign of Richard, and very likely Sarah died in 1926 in Blackburn. I cannot find any trace of Elsie after this, and have checked under all three surnames. Perhaps fresh eyes might find her for me!
