YATES Lilian B Dudley Staffordshire 1925 Oct-Nov-Dec

Plus this one Yates / Wale

YATES Fred West Bromwich Staffordshire 1915 Apr-May-Jun

They could all belong to the same family Maud being born at family's house if father was away at WW1

Lilian M could have died and so Lilian B named after her

Without the birth certificates this is supposition unless you have any further info.

In addition to the ones cid got I found this as well
Elizabeth Yates
Year of Registration: 1913
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
Mother's Maiden Name: Whale
