The age difference between Thomas & Catherine's daughter Mary Ann (1845) and Elizabeth is enough for Mary Ann to have possibly been her mother rather than her sister. (Just a thought!)

I don't see Mary Ann after 1851.

Ah ok then, this could possibly be her. Puts paid to the theory that she's Elizabeth's mum though.
