Apparently Ellen Price born 1819 in Eastham (parents Richard and Margaret Price) is a bit of a "famous" person as one of the earlier pioneers going to Utah and was converted to Mormonism in Liverpool where she lived with her husband who became an elder of the church. I was alerted to all this by the Millenium File on Ancestry which I'd never heard of before. According to Find A Grave (link from Anc) Ellen and her husband were married at St Thomas, Liverpool on 09 Sep 1837

but I cannot find any trace of this and in fact the PR for St Thomas says there were no marriages from June of that year until 1838 because of repairs to the church. HOWEVER, somebody sent me a link to a 68 page pdf file last night which after reading through it, it says in fact they were married at "St Thomas Cathedral, Toxteth Park" on that date.
I can see an Ellen (born Eastham) in the 1841, 1851 and 1861 censuses with right husband and various children.
There is only one Ellen Price b Eastham daughter of Richard and Margaret Price that I've found. Are there more? Can you find the above marriage?
This is being made doubly hard because there are 2 families of Richard and Margaret Price, similar age in the same area of the Wirral. One family in Bebington have about 10 children, one being Ellen, but I think this Ellen was born in Wales and baptised there. It's very hard to see which children belong to which family as both lived in almost the same place and both fathers are Ag Labs or Labourers on the baptisms.....I have done a printout of all Prices in the area on the PR's with a father Richard and mother Margaret and also the same for the BT's but which child belongs to which family?
Now all my family (so far) seem to be round Neston/Eastham ish areas. On this pdf file mentioned is a letter from Ellen's son after a visit to England talking about visiting family graves and people in Bevinton (Bebington?) and Brombry (Bromborough).....
It's so much harder to work forwards than backwards.......
