Could you say how you got back to her and whether you know she is still alive in 1841?

Thank-you

Elizabeth`s sister mary born 1808 was my 3xgreatgrand mother and was a witness at Mary`s wedding to William Mason.
Can`t find Elizabeth on the 1841 census.

The witness to Mary Ann's marriage may not have been her sister.
It could have been a cousin or a sister in law

Elizabeth and Mary have the same parents names that is whyi assumed they were sisters.

The Elizabeth who witnessed her marriage could have been a different Elizabeth Pinkstone - unlikely but possible.

Also, she could have died between the marriage and 1841 census.

I'm not saying Mary didn't have a sister Elizabeth( she obviously did) but suppose Elizabeth died as a child and Mary had a cousin by the same name or the wife of her brother as a witness.
