Note1892It is not known how long Ellen's marriage to George Rushby lasted but it is unlikely to have been very long. Her son Walter George Rushby born in 1890 and daughter Mary Frances Eveline Rushby born 1892 seem to have gone through life with the surname Allen which is the same surname she used when she mnarried John Trott in 1905. So we can only assume that she at least lived with someone called Allen between her 2 official marriages for I can find no trace of any marriage to an Allen
