Can't find a birth for Eileen Morris but there is one for Eileen Londregan so perhaps Eileen was born before the marriage:

Registration district: Ashton
Registration county: Lancashire

Hi Potty,
Thanks for helping, im sat with my great aunt but trying to get info out of her lol she said you are right about Eileen and she now remembers that Eileen was born out of wedlock and not James's and that Ellens sisters raised Eileen.

My aunt also said that Ellen was christend Ellen but people called her Nellie so it probably is the same 1

thank you so much for your help
