    As Maesteg is in Bridgend this looks like a likely birth registration on the GRO index

    Alice Maud Stephens Dec 1/4 1901 registration district Bridgend vol 11a page 795 Mother's maiden name Lee.

    thanks Christanel
    I had a different name for Alice and checked the GRO Index which came up the name Lee. Now trying to find a marriage entry for Alice's mother using the name Lee but so far no luck. Thanks again for your help

    If Alice's mother had been married before she married Alice's father the marriage won't be under the name Lee.

    Like you I can't see a likely marriage entry - I think that it would be a good idea to get Alice's birth certificate to see what that says about her mother's maiden name as that might help narrow down.

    There is one marriage that might just fit - seems a little but they might have been in service:

    HENRY HERBERT STEVENS and MARY LEE 1894 April quarter St. Saviour Southwark Volume 1D page 113

    It is a couple of years out based on the 1911 statement that they had been married for 15 years, but who says everybody's maths is perfect?

    Thanks Megan that looks interesting. I'm sending off for the birth and marriage certificates for Alice Maud, maybe they'll give me a clue. Thanks again
