Anne ...These may be brothers of Eliz.

1881 Census shows a John G. McWilliams and a James McWilliams lodging at 32 Puddlers Row Consett..however if you get some one to check 1871 Census Eliz Ann should be listed with her parents and family...sorry I dont have access.
You could also check www.Durham Records On Line. Plenty of McWilliams (Eliz A.listed for 1871 Census)...put Lanchester in the search box...It is a pay per view but the search is free....
