Hi there,
Can someone help me with this brickwall that has been 'bugging' me for years !
Lily Mayer Scriven was born in March 1901, daughter of Jessie Scriven of Dye Lane, Alveley, nr Bridgnorth, Shropshire
Lily is listed on the 1901 census, but I can't find her in 1911 census ???? ( not to be confused with another Lily Scriven born in Alveley at the same time !)

Lily leaves Alveley and marries Felix Edwin Bateman ( a much older man) at Coventry, in September 1926.
and they have a daughter.
Felix dies around 1950....but what happened to Lily ?
My initial thoughts were did Lily re-marry ?....and I quickly found this entry 'Lily BATEMAN married Harry HALL Coventry 1951'
But I have been unable to find a death for a Lily Hall (born March 1901) ???......

Any help much appreciated
Margaret

Have you searched the full GRO Index on Ancestry, will be on there.

Linell.

Hello Linell
Yes..myself and a friend both searched the GRO on Ancestry and neither of us found Lily...

The Find My Past indexes are now more accurate than Ancestry.

Having a look, these are potential deaths

Civil Registration event: Death
Name: BATEMAN, Lilian M
Registration District: Hammersmith
County: London
Year of Registration: 1962
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
Age at death: 60
Volume No: 5C
Page No: 659

Registration District: Help Waltham Forest
County: Essex
Year of Registration: 1967
Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun
Age at death: 67
Volume No: 5E
Page No: 313

I see she used the name Miriam in the 1901 census.

Still couldn't find her in the 1911 census though....

Hi there,
Many thaks for your kindness and help. It is much appreciated
I looked at lilian too....but from what I am told Lily is definatley a 'Lily' rather than a Lilian...the baptism register says Lily and so does the marriage register
the puzzle continues ...any help much appreciated
Best Wishes Margaret
