Where are the Jackson siblings?
I am trying to trace the siblings of my great-grandmother, who was born Ellen Jackson on 27 September 1857 in Skircoat Yorkshire. She was the youngest.
Parents: Henry Jackson Sophia Charlotte (nee Stillings) Siblings: Sarah Eliza Married John Thomas. She died in 1874 in Barton Lancs. Mary J Where did she go? Emma Where did he go? William Where did he go? Betty Never married. My great-grandmother lived with her when she was widowed 1851 Census HO107 2299 233 35 Lindwell Bank Elland cum Greetland Henry Jackson Head Mar 31 Worsted Overlooker Yshire Sowerby Sophia C Wife Mar 32 Yorkshire Skircoat Sarah E Daur Un 6 Scholar Yorkshire Greetland Mary Jane Daur U 4 Yorkshire Greetland Emma Daur U 2 Yorkshire Greetland 1861 Census RG9 2896 25 43 14 Harrowby Street Hulme Henry Jackson Head Mar 39 Foreman Worsted spinning Halifax Sophia Wife Mar 40 Yorkshire Halifax Sarah Daur Un 17 Worsted Spinner Yorkshire Halifax Mary J Daur Un 15 Worsted Spinner Yorkshire Halifax Emma Daur Un 12 Worsted Spinner Yorkshire Halifax William Son 8 Scholar Yorkshire Halifax Betty Daur 6 Scholar Yorkshire Halifax Ellen Daur 2 Yorkshire Halifax John Stillings Visitor Mar 67 Corn Miller Yorkshire Halifax 1871 Census RG10 4001 111 43 21 Henlock Street Hulme Manchester Henry Jackson Head Mar 51 Overlooker Yorkshire Halifax Sophia C Wife Mar 52 Yorkshire Halifax Emma Daur Unm 22 Factory Operative Yorkshire Halifax William Son Unm 18 Warehouseman Yorkshire Halifax Betty Daur Unm 16 Factory Operative Yorkshire Halifax Ellen Daur 13 Scholar Yorkshire Halifax John Brook Lodger Widr 32 Woolsorter Yorkshire Halifax 1881 Census RG11 3885 103 29 122 Cornbrook Street Stretford Lancashire Henry Jackson Head Mar 62 Overlooker Worsted Mill Yorkshire Mytholroyd Sophia C Wife Mar 63 Yorkshire Skircoat Betty Daur Un 26 Yorkshire Skircoat John Thomas Son in Law Widr 35 Salesman Calico Lancashire Salford I have found it hard to find births for them all as Jackson is such a common name.

Starting by hoping that Mary Jane got married at the same church as Sarah Eliza did (St John, Manchester) there are a couple of possible marriages for her between 1861 and 1871:
1866 to William H Whittle or 1867 to John Mayor. Off to try 1871 census for those...

Thanks Kate!
They have frustrated me so much over the past few years. Just finding my great-grandmother's birth certificate was tricky.

36 Pickford St., Stretford, Lancashire John Mayor Head Mar 26 Maker Up Lancashire Preston Mary J Do Wife Mar 24 Yorkshire Halifax John H Do Son 2 Lancashire Manchester

1871 to William Morris 1872 to Frederick Fox
