Not sure anyone can help but I have two surnames for a marriage between 1900 and 1919....
REYNOLDS on the paternal side and WOODLIFFE on the maternal.
Their residence apparently changed from Ireland to Cornwall and finally to Bristol . But no idea if Ireland is where either were born. I ran a search on the two names on freeBMD but nothing came up for a marriage so Ireland could be where it happened.
At this stage I have no christian names., but found two of their children Doris and Guy who were born in Bristol 1918 and 1919.

You'll need to get one of the birth certs to find parents christian names.

Looks like Lilian died in 1894 in Bristol.

Not understanding that death in 1894.
She had children in 1918 & 1919 !

Lillian was married 1914 so must be someone else

:-) That's a ripe old age. I was told she lived with several siblings.
There was apparently naval connection with this family hence an Ireland and Cornwall residence (Portcathy near Polperro) so wondering if Charles G. Reynolds was also in the navy. I found one George G. Reynolds born Exeter 1881 living in Middlesex in 1891 and1901 on familysearch index.

Have been able to download service records and this is going to make a very nice 75th birthday present today for the grandson of Charles and Lillian! Still need some info on Lillian Beatrice though, is she on 1891 or 1901?
