      I cannot see your 1891 census?

      The closest I can find is a Lily Kay born 1884 Beswick Manchester, living with grandmother Elizabeth Kay born 1828 Manchester. Living in Beswick.

      Also found a 1901 census for a Lily Kay born 1884 Manchester, shown as niece to Mary A Kay born 1858 Manchester. Living in Ashton under Lyne.

      Are these right? If not can you give the census reference for your 1891 census.

            There is a possible marriage in 1906 in Ashton under Lyne (which is where she was living in 1901) between a Lily Kay and Robert William Lawton.
            The image for the MC is on Family search - click here
            Doesn't actually help at all because it says Lily is illegitmate and no father's name given!

            Really need to find this couple in the 1911 census to see if the birth place for Lily matches - but I can't see them at the moment!

              Look as though it could be her same occupation and area and age correct hope you find then in 1911
              say she was illegitimate so who was her Mother ??

                    If you click on the word "here" in post #6 it should take you to the page, if not the link is:

                    I don't think you are going to be able to find out unless you can locate her birth certificate or baptism.

                    I have checked on Lancashire OPC (Online Parish Clerk) but cannot see anything useful.

                    There are quite a few images for different parishes on the Family Search website - click here. You need to select a parish and then scroll through the image pages. Rather than scrolling through page 1, then page2, then page 3 - you will see a box at the top where you can type in the page number you want and jump directly to that. It is just a matter of trial and error getting to the right year you are looking for - jumping forwards and backwards through the images. Very time consuming but well worth it if you find something!
