Thank you I will take a look. I have also found a criminal record for an Elizabeth Keelan with alias of Clifford and Browngreaves it looks like she as born in Bradford but about 10 years earlier than according to the 1921 census. I think one of the trials was in Durham so the places and names fit, There are some archive newspaper references so I am going to join that site in case they shed any light. If this was her then maybe there is no record of her marriage and then Kathleens birth and then on census as she may have been in prison. Don't want to be doing her a dis service if this is a different person!
