Samantha The first place to lookis the censuses. 1881 is on www.familysearch.org and is free 1891 is on ancestry you need a subscription for this or ask for a look up 1901 is free to search but you have to pay to view the image http://www.census.pro.gov.uk/ then you will know for sure the ages and places of birth of the people you are looking for. after that you need birth and marriage certs Margaret

My great great nan was called Lilian Owen. She was probably born in East London and she married William Oliver who come from woodford in essex. They had four children edith,thomas,william, and lilian. I believe Lilian's parents were welsh and I would like to trace this further. Lilian I would say was born in the late 1800's and died at the age of 29. Please could any one help me?
