I'm afraid, assuming she disappeared voluntarily, it looks as if she must have changed her name - there's no sign of her as Ellen / Nellie Catton, as far as I can see.

EDIT:

Unless Maddie's suggestion is correct, and unless her DOB is wrong in 1939!

Old thread with no useful answers:

To answer the question posed there -

no, she didn't marry Mr Lawrence.

That Nellie's father was Charles:
