The only information we have at this time are some family notes and an On Line copy of the Marriage License from Guelph Ontario. The marriage license has her name as Elizabeth yet some think it maybe Sarah Elizabeth not Elizabeth Sarah unsure if and when she might have dropped Sarah and that they both very involved with the Salvation Army. Thanks for helping Keith

So you have never seen a Birth Certificate?
The problem I have is I can find on the English online Indexes no marriage for Daniel and Ellen, nor a birth in Stockport, Cheshire for a HAYWORTH with mother's maiden name of BAILEY.
The trouble is - a marriage certificate (as, indeed, is a Birth certificate) only as good as the information provided by the parties concerned. Sometimes this is not quite correct, for whatever reason.
This could be something as simple as a spelling error or an age a few years out. For example, the surname of HAYWORTH is a variant of HAWORTH, HOWARTH, HAWARTH etc etc. Prior to the 20th Century these spelling variations occurred frequently in documentation.
Which is why I asked what documentation you hold.
I am not familiar with Canadian MArriage certificates - do they give father's occupation?
