EDIT:-

just found blanche married an Edwad Elliott in 1913 . so they either divorced or edward died before 1926 and the james elliott on 39 register must be their son

malyon may be her but brown is very common name in sunderland and wouldnt like to guess on the 1891 /1901 so ive bit the bullet and just ordered her marriage to matthew .. then i will have her father ( hopefully) but she should be as annie hern in 1911

That census is also on Ancestry. Wonder why it isn't on GR? I suspect Hilda has been mistranscribed because of the curious way that the enumerator makes an H and also the fact that he doesn't bother to dot his i's. I suggest you look for the other names in the family.
