Bernice, can you post a census that you've found her on? If you've found the children, why do you say possible partner/ wife to William Brewster? Are the children Brewsters?

Yes, Elizabeth Green's 5 children are all Brewsters but I am trying to find out if William and Elizabeth were ever married. I suspect not. His first wife was Elizabeth Holroyd. They had 4 daughters in Leeds (1880s). I have seen the 1891 census, Tania, and its a puzzle. It seems he may have called himself "William Green" as the details fit. I'd still like to find a death for her, but it could be Green or Brewster.William married again in 1910.
