If you can trace her marriage to Charles Mummery and order the certificate, it will tell you how old they both were and the name and occupations of both fathers. This will make it easier to track down a birth for both Ellen and Charles. Sam x

Gillian I found out a lot of information about Charles Mummery for you last week - you deleted your thread but said you had copied the information down. That 1901 entry was him - and his previous wife who died young before he married Ellen. It is a shame to waste peoples time looking for information that I already gave you last week!
