Narrative
Elizabeth lived on a farm in Winsford with her great aunt Lizzie Naylor. She went into service in Manchester at the age of 10 - joining her eldest sister Hannah who had a good position there.
She first married Shackleton - no children - he died when his gall bladder burst. She then married Frederick Bennett. Elizabeth died at the age of 85.
Lily Spencer (nee Bennett) thought Elizabeth met Frederick at the Morning Star in Featherstall Road. The 1881 census shows Elizabeth Finney as a servant at 111 Featherstall Road, Oldham (aged 20). Assuming this is "our" Elizabeth she would presumably have married Mr Shackleton after the 1881 census.
