According to Lancs BMD site - this appears to be John & Ellen's marriage:

This is son Richard's birth:

The two entries for Florence's birth in 1894 do not show Eccleston as mothers maiden name:

I am trying to find, without any success at all, Florence Holden on the 1901 census. She was born in 1894 and her father was called John and her mother was called Ellen. She seemed to be known as Florrie sometimes.
Any help would be appreciated.
