Well it looks as though I have found my Grandmother Lily or as she really is Elizabeth Forrester Born 1871 Hanley Stoke Upon Trent.
Received Birth Certificate today which I think confirms it is the rght one.
On B.C. her father John Forrester is a Potters Figure Maker, the same as on her Marriage certificate. Also her brother and sisters on the Census have been conformed by my cousin who had met her sisters Harriet, Rose and Florence. This has all come about through guys, |bowdown| |bowdown| Without all your help I would not have found out all the info I needed and of course my cousin Ron.
Thanks
Sue

Good news Dietbix |jumphappy

I'm glad you were able to sort her name out. That's the trouble with nicknames - they could stand for anything. Good work!:D

Even Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth 11 was known to her parents, sister and husband as Lillibet so it is easy to see how the name could come about. all we have to do is be clever enough to remember such things before we go searching along the wrong tree LOL.

I am so glad you have found her, now you can go back at least another generation.
