Most people on here are members of Ancestry and can get a message to the tree owner (Whitehead family tree) but putting the two of you in touch will be tricky unless you are a member of one of the forums that can send private messages. Family Tree Forum is probably the best one.
You should be able to liase about usernames on other sites through this site but you cannot put personal details on here. I have sent her a message in the mean time directing her to this site.

Yes I can see it. The name of the family tree is Whitehead if that helps. 3 sons are listed but no info (no date of death) after the 1920 address you have.
The 1901 census has her with husband and one son in Warwickshire. -

Elizabeth there are two Family Trees with the Elizabeth Harwood you are seeking. One is the Whitehead Family Tree, with sources and one is the Tew-Brooks Tree, unsourced info.
A quick look gives her parents as John Harwood and Eleanor Turvey.
It is not possible to give you info so you can contact them directly as Ancestry Works through a coded message system to protect users.
What can I do to help? -

I have heard back from the treeholder and she has contacted you directly as she is aware of you, or thinks so.
