Yes her maiden name was definitely Smith.
Doreen

I knew Lily came from a farming background so I am sure you have found the right one for me.The marriage certificate should confirm this when I get a copy and I can start looking up her parentage.
Doreen

Vera Thanks I will apply for a marriage certificate now you have found the right Lily Smith for me.
Doreen

Before you order anything, did you know her maiden name was Smith or are you hoping it was??

I think its the only way to go- lets hope her father has an obscure name on that marriage cert,( Like Ebineezer Aristotle Smith,) not John !!

If you know the first son was Joseph, then yes, my 1901 is probably right,no disrespect to Julie

Scarlet Ribbons
Thanks for all your help I think you have got it right.
I do not know of any parents for John Jenkinson or Lily Smith but their first son was called Joseph and had about ten children but only five lived to adulthood. I think Martha must have died young. I will obtain a marriage certificate now so I can find out more details.
Thanks again
Doreen.

How have you got back to that couple?

Hi Doreen,
There is only one Lily Smith registered at Rotherham for Mar Qtr 1899....if you send for the marriage certificate including John Jenkinsons name....it will give you Lilys dads name and occupation and hopefully that will help.

On FreeBMD I think it has been duplicated.

Regards Vera

Thanks
Ddoreen

No, the IGI isnt helping

She is transcribed as Lilian in 1901 so really, Lily/Lilly is unimportant.

She is one and the same girl on that marriage transcription - the transcriber couldnt tell if her name was spelled with one or two LL's - so transcribed as both.

* Howdo you know she was born in Rotherham????

This is the information I found:-
Lily Smith Rotherham July/Sept born 1877 vol9c page 597
Lily Smith Rotherham April/June born 1881 vol 9c page 660
Lily Smith Rotherham April/June born 1883 vol 9c page 646
Lily Smith Rotherham Oct/Dec born 1883 vol 9c page 643
is this any help?
Doreen

I will check on Ancestry just to see if there are two Lily Smiths.

Regards Vera

With a Smith especially, I think you are going to have to have a marriage cert,for her fathers name.

let me just check the IGI

Sorry I only have her name
Doreen

I took it to mean that Doreen had found 5 on the Census

Lillian was born abt 1879

Where born: Looge Farm, England (i think it says LODGE FARM) its very poorly transcribed

No idea where that is

Hi Doreen,
Only thing I can think of......if you have the marriage certificate...what occupation was Lily Smiths father?...then you can check on the census'.....just to see if that can help you.


Regards Vera

Where does 1901 census say she was born?

*Cant spot them with your info

Doreen

Do you have the M/C for

Dads name and occupation
her age
