search for family

My first post.

Has Mary Ann Parker nee Marwood vanished into the ether? she was born in 1883 in England daughter of Henry Parker who had died before 1904.m 1904 to Herbert Marwood in Hartlepool UK. She always said she was adopted by a family called O'Brian.
She was my Grandmother, She immigrated to Australia in about 1925 with her two daughters Connie and Daisy, joining her two sons William Marwood and Henry Herbert Marwood in Melbourne. Now I am trying to find out something about her but have come against a brick wall. If you come accross her name as a seven year old in the 1891 British Census, I would be gratefull.
Let this be a lesson, don't leave questions until too late.
