Hughes family of Deritend/Bordesley

Ancient Brummie
John Hughes married Charlotte Sandbrook in 1875. They were pearl button makers. Of their 4 children Elizabeth Ann was my grandmother, but I'm looking for info on John b1876/77, Ellen b1883 and Arthur b1885. The parents John died 1889 and Charlotte in 1900. On the 1901 census Ellen was living with Elizabeth in Landor St, and Arthur was in Fulham with his aunt Eliza Bramwell (nee Sandbrook). Arthur may have emigrated to Canada abt 1904 or 1906 but I'm not certain of that & I can't find anything on John nor what happened to Ellen after 1901 - she might have been known as Lil.

Can anyone help
