On this page it says records will be held by some division of Manchesater City Council:-

You could give the council a ring and see if anyone there can help with where records are kept.

Are you sure that the Eliza in Style hospital is yours.

If the census I have posted for 1911 is the right one and apart from the name being down as Williams everything else fits. Even father in law is on there. But also Eliza Ann is there also. I have reposted beow

Ladywell was used according to Google as an infectious diseases hospital & TB sanatorium so they were possibly there with eg scarlet fever.


Robert Williams Husband Married Male Coal Miner Hewer 34 1877 Lancs Longsight
Eliza Ann Williams Daughter Single Female - 10 1901 Lancs Pendleton
Sarah Williams Daughter Single Female - 8 1903 Lancs Pendleton
Thomas Hinchcliffe Boarder Widower Male Minder In Weaving Shed 58 1853 Lancs Blackburn
Mary Southworth Servant Widow Female House Keeper 64 1847 Lancs Hulme
