Find Ancestors

Hello,
I’m trying to find out information about my Grandmother's side of the family.
The information that i have is that she is from Great Yarmouth Named Dorothy Millican, I have been told of a letter that was sent to her father for her hand in marriage and that the address Was 46 Havlock Road great Yarmouth.

Can anyone help?

When was she born? Is she still alive? What was her married name?

Could either of these be her?
