Between 1901 and 1911, the only Marriage is for Maud Mather and Francis Sharp.  This is now believed to be another younger Maude, born 1886, daughter of Thomas Mather and Catherine Lawton.

Maud emigrated to Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and moved on to the USA.  Maud had emigrated to the US in 1915. There is a US Social Security Application for Maud Mather, born 17 Dec 1879, daughter of Samuel and Helen.  It is assumed she died in the US

In 1881, John was aged 4, living at 121 Chorley Old Rd, Halliwell with parents Samuel and Ellen and family.
