Ilkeston can be Derbyshire or Notts so not sure. Elizabeth and Harold married quite late they adopted two boys had non of their own. I do not have a marriage certificate as looking for a friend.

Not seeing her on any census so looks like your friend needs to get the marriage cert. It will give her age at marriage and her fathers name.if known.

Does he have any further info on her ie her death year etc or Harolds death

These are just 2 birth indexes so your friend really needs to get the marriage cert to hopefully give us the fathers name and she then should be on the 1901/1911 census
