Have you tried searching for
" Helen " , "Eleanor" or possibly " Nellie " as people were often entered on census records by the name they were known as rather than as their given name. I've come across a number of mis-interpretations from original census details too, such as my own Grandfather who became "Albert" on transcription instead of "Herbert"

If you have the marriage index ,a certificate should give her fathers name which might help in your search
