To know if Mary is the Mum of Dorothy would be to buy her B/C

But it is better to work backwards rather than work forwards

I am looking for information please in regards to my GRGR grandfather,
Williams Marks born in 1878,in Morriston,Swansea West Glamorgan.
I found him on the 1911 census and he was living in 55 Crown Street Morriston SWansea,
i also found his wife Catherine Marks born in 1879 but i dont know her maiden name.
I also found a daughter living there called Mary Maud Marks born 1898 and she was in school .
Williams job title is a Shippper at the Steel and Tin works.
I had originally assumed they were from Penzance in Cornwall but by the looks of it they were not.
What im intereseted in finding out is Mary Maud Marks went on to have a daughter named Dorothy marks born in 1915 in morriston swansea.
At a later date i discovered at a family grave that there was an Alice Marks burried there?
i canno find the link in regards to this Alice Marks,my family have heard of an Alice but never a Mary MAUD?
i would be ever so grateful if anyone could offer some help in getting to the bottom of this .
many thanks helen x
