The birth cert should have Florence's mother's maiden name on.

If those are the correct family, these could be them in 1891

Thanks Ericthered
I do think this Walter is right as my Grandma's mother was Elizabeth Ann.

Maureen,
Think this is my Grandma, her mother was an Elizabeth and the area of Sheffield seems right. Thank you so much.

Sure her brother was born after 1901, so I wonder why my Grandma is not on census. Do you know if they were in hospital if this could be found? Thinking about it, they could not probably afford hospitals.

Hi,
yes that's the one I've got, father a Walter Maw. On her marriage and death certificate her birth year is 1896 and Lillie is spelt Lily. This is why I wonder if there is another one.

What was her father's name?

When you say 'certificate' do you mean you have the actual cert in your possession?
