The one who seemingly has no records or takes so much work to dig up one record

I finally found some Info on mine. I went back to the basics and asked some family who was alive when I believe this mystery person was and it helped a lot. let’s hear yours!

One of my great great grandmothers. She appears in records in London as a teen. But there's nothing on her or her mother before then anywhere in the country. She doesn't even have that common a name. There's only one other person with her name in the greater London area at that time, and she married someone else and had several kids with him, right when my g-grandmother was pregnant more than once (that was an annoying rabbit hole/waste of time!). So I know it's not her.
