Technically when registering the births of her children Ellen should be giving her maiden name as her maiden name - the birth cert for children of her second marriage would show something like Ellen Quinn late Range formerly Thornhill - so it would be Thornhill that would go on the mothers maiden name on the registers.

Have you checked freebmd? After 1911, you can include MMN in your search criteria. Presumably you know where these people married, so the chances are that their children will have been born in the same part of the country
