Have you tried looking on freebmd for possible marriage info?

Make that your first search, and see what you come up with

You refer to Mabel being a servant - in which census was that?

What was your great grandfather's name?

That will enable you to look also for possible children

Have you checked whether anyone else on GR is looking into this famliy?

There's a search trees option in the dark green bar at the top
