So, if we are to assume that she was Zela's mother. We have to do this because Zela used the surname Parkins when she was married, rather than her father's surname of Webb.

John Scolefield married either Harriet Wood or Harriet Crowther.
Where did her parents live before she was born?
John Parkins and Harriet Parkins lived in Florist Street in Leeds in 1851 with their 9 month old daughter, Elizabeth. Both are listed as 20 but the census at the time rounded ages so people aged 20-24 were rounded down to 20.
Where was she in 1851?
She lived in Northwich with her father, mother and older sister and 2 younger sisters:
John Scholefield Parking (30)
Harriet Parking (34)
Elizabeth Parking (10)

Emily Parking (4)
Harriet Parking (1)
This 1851 census is interesting as it shows how the family moved from Leeds to Horbury and then on to Norwich, by the locations of the girls' births. John and Harriet's jobs were as wosl sorters (is this meant to be wool?)

Where was she in 1881?
37 year old Frances Ann Gough was living in 15 Eastborne Road in Birkdale, Lancashire.
This record is identified because the 65 year old mother, Harriet Parkins is residing with the family. This is the same Frances Ann because she was born in Wakefield.
This record indicates that Frances Ann spent some time in India with her husband Mr Gough. It would explain why she lost connection with Zela. The new family consists of:
Frances Ann Gough 37 born in Wakefield
Arthur John Gough 8 born in Halifax (JUL/AUG/SEPT 1873 VOL 9A PAGE 559)
Katherine A Gough 6 born in Halifax
Marion D Gough 3 born in India
Harold E Gough 2 born in India
Harriet Parkins 65 born in Leeds
a 48 year old boarder named William J Low born in India
and a servant

Where was she in 1891?
Frances Ann Parken in 1891 ???. She is a 49 year old living in 89 Lavender Grove, Hackney, London. Her birth year is listed as 1842. It's possibly not the same one, as she lists her birth place as Birmingham, Wariwckshire.
When did she die?
can't find the Low family in 1891 or any of the Goughs - think they may have gone back to India.
Harriet Parkins is difficult to locate as well.
