Trying to find Ellen Sarah James BORN 1884 DIED 1943

Married to William Beeston (Staffs Bloxwixh)

Need to work backwards - I can't see an obvious marriage for Ellen and William, however this is the death registration for Ellen S Beeston:-

Name: Ellen S Beeston
Death Registration Month/Year: 1943
Age at death (estimated): 59
Registration district: Loughborough
Inferred County: Nottinghamshire
Volume: 7a
Page: 149

Did they have any children? The only one that I can find if it's correct is as follows:

Name: Reginald W Beeston
Mother's Maiden Surname: James
Date of Registration: Apr May Jun 1928
Registration district: Loughbro'
Registration county: Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Rutland
Volume Number: 7a
Page Number: 215 (click to see others on page)

Is it possible that Ellen Sarah James had been married before she married William Beeston?

Found this marriage which may tie in:-

Name: William Beeston
Spouse Surname: Thornewell
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1928
Registration district: Loughborough
Registration county (inferred): Leicestershire
Volume Number: 7a
Page Number: 198
Find Spouse: Find Spouse - Ellen S Thornewell

Possible first marriage??????

Possible 1901 census for Ellen Sarah James, at home with parents and siblings - however to check that this is correct you would need to order her marriage certificate to see who is listed as her father:

Father's Name: James James
Mother's Name: Mary Ann James

Possible 1891 census - this shows Ellen as Helen, however the rest of the family members are the same, so presumably her name was recorded incorrectly:-
