Thanks ArgyllGran

So that means she didn't marry Charles Would and she didn't marry George Stainton. So perhaps she was the other child that died. Strange I couldn't see a deat for her.

thanks for helping

I just wish it could have been positive, rather than the opposite.

Rummaging around for Mary (without success), I found that, interestingly, Mary's mother is named as Alice Maud at her baptism.
Presumably just a mistake:


Baptism entry

County Lincolnshire
Place Scunthorpe
Church name St John
Register type
Register entry number 58
Baptism date 21 Sep 1890
Person forename Mary Ethel
Person sex F
Person abode Scunthorpe
Father forename James
Father surname GRAY
Father occupation Labourer
Mother forename Alice Maud 99%)
ELWIS Alice Marian Glanford B. 7a 1455
Gray James Glanford B. 7a 1455


Throughout the 1891-1911 censuses posted on page 1 of this thread, she's Alice Maria

I assume this is her marriage, from FreeBMD. There's no sign of this marriage on FreeReg2 in the Parish Registers:
Marriages Jun 1877 (>99%)
ELWIS Alice Marian Glanford B. 7a 1455
Gray James Glanford B. 7a 1455


And her birth - name as you said in your OP , Jane:

Births Mar 1859 (>99%)
ELVIDGE Alice Maria Thorne 9c 489


EDIT - later:

But on the baptism transcription on FamilySearch, she's Alice Maria:
