They are on Ancestry.co.uk
Maybe you could see if you could find if there any offers on i.e 14 day free trials.

how can i read the war papers please

Mary Report 29 Jul 2013 18:25

On George's war records they are at the same address in 1914 when he enlisted which should read I think 6 court 10 House Hoyle Street.

Ellen was still at this address in 1935 when George died and Ellen was trying to get some sort of pension for him.
These records are also on his war papers.

Must admit I can't see them 1911 either. You say he had been in the army, when was this?
As a last try, what do you know about Ellen - birth year, father's name, birthplace?
