Have you looked on https://www.manchesterjewishmuseum.com/ ?
Their phone number is +44161 834 9879. They may be able to help. I'm assuming you've checked the 1911 census on one of the websites you mentioned that may give you some clues. Hope that helps. -- Shoshanah Glickman Gateshead, UK

I'm afraid the Manchester Jewish Museum may not help with genealogical research
The 1891, 1901 and 1911 censuses may give some info on family origin - try Ancestry or FindMyPast. The 1921 census is not public domain yet, although the 1939 register (a mini-census) is Try the Discovery search engine at the UK National Archives to see if they hold her father's naturalisation papers (if he applied for British citizenship). If he did you can ask for a quotation for a copy of the full file. Often that will give information on his birth place in Poland/Russia. Try jri-poland (part of JewishGen) - if you find her parent's listed there, it will give details of where they lived, access to the images and may lead you to ancestors' names -- Michael Sharp Manchester UK michael.sharp@...

As you think your relative may have been born in Belarus, I suggest you contact a charity called The Together Plan, based in London and Belarus, which tries to help Jews still living in Belarus to become self sufficient.
One of their projects is genealogy. They have the huge advantage of speaking the relevant languages, as well as the ability to navigate through the local bureaucracies. Good hunting, Margaret Levin , N London UK www.thetogetherplan.com
