Hi Jane
You wrote: "eleanor killey m william corris in 1838, her father john killey:labourer...his father william corris:tailor.
have now tracked this pair right through all censuses up until .....eleanor corris in 1901...dalton in furness lancashire...she is 82 and with her daughter catherine corris quilliam.(catherine corris married thomas quilliam in 1866 patrick).....also with family is catherine quilliams brother, william r corris....a known son of eleanor killey and william corris.
death of eleanor corris in 1901 in dalton in furness .....aged 81.
think this all fits for eleanor killey, daughter of john killey and mary callow."
I'm questioning your statement " william r corris....a known son of eleanor killey and william corris." -----It doesn't square with these two extracted entries from the IGI:

Which makes me believe that the Eleanor Corris who died in Dalton in Furness in 1901 was Eleanor nee Callister, widow of John Corris.
