Name Elizabeth HARRISON Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 10 Apr 1895 Kidsgrove, Staffordshire, England 
- Actual date from 1939 register (where with her husband Vivian); place from the 1911 census (shown as Wolstanton in 1901).
GRO ref: Harrison, Elizabeth q2 1894 Wolstanton RD 6b 140; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Jukes
(I think it this one of the many Elizabeth Harrisons because Qtr fits with the date / month of birth, just a year earlier than that in the 1939 register, and because with the family in the register was a Nora Harrison, born 1905. The birth of a Nora was reigstered in Wolstanton RD in 1904, qtr to match dob in the register, also with a mother's maiden name of Jukes)
Gender Female Occupation 1921 High Street, Hanley, Staffordshire, England Fustian cutter - Working for Mr Alfred Barton.
All five sisters living at the same address at the time of the 1921 census (Elizabeth, May (Hilda), Ivy, Nora and Rhoda) had the same occupation.
Died Jun Q 1956 Stoke on Trent Reg Dist, Staffordshire, England - GRO ref: Gotham, Elizabeth q2 1956 aged 62 Stoke RD 9b 559
I could have muddled the death of this Elizabeth with another born the same year, but close match between the dob of the other given at death registration (19 May) and the date in the 1939 register (21 May) makes me think that those 2 are for the same person, and so this death registration for this Elizabeth.

(Archive reference: D5539/1/4, p. 120)The 1911 census shows they had had 14 chlldren, 11 of whom were still living. Twelve are names in one or more censuses, 1891-1911 so it appears 3 were born and died between censuses, and one of those not with them in 1911 had also died (i.e. William, Clara, Mary Jane or Amy). Not only was there a death of an Amy of the right age in Wolstanton RD, but there were no other births of Amys of the same age in Staffordshire whose death this could be.
