What's his occup Dennis ?
the marriage is 1901 though

Re: Lilian Eveline Victoria Griffiths
William Griffiths was an engine driver in a colliery. He married Polly c. 1891, by 1911 they had 10 children.
I'm still thinking about the similarity between the two names, NL, Lilian Eveline Victoria Griffiths and Lilian Victoria Griffiths, it seems too great to be coincidental. That said, there was a Lilian Victoria Griffiths born about September 1895 in West Bromwich (the one I mentioned) and also a Lilian Evelyn S. Griffiths born about June 1897 in Wolverhampton.

Re: Lilian Eveline Victoria Griffiths
Sorry, I've been missing the main point
William Francis Griffiths the father. There were two born in the area in 1867, one in Tipton and one in West Bromwich. Polly's husband was indeed an engine driver. Polly = Mary, I presume.
