Does anyone know what happend to Lily Twist B abt 1906/7 Toxteth Park Liverpool, she was the sister of my Gradnma Maud Evelyn Twist B 26 Apr 1908. My mum is sure her name was Lily and she could have married a Tom Connelly. Lily had two Children Patrick Connelly (in the Merchant Navy and possibly moved to America) and Sheila Connelly.
If anyone has any info no matter how small I would really appreciate it
Thank you
Wendy

Hello Witchypoo

I thought she was born in West Derby, but when i got my grandma Maud Evelyn birth certificate she was born in Toxteth Park Liverpool so im not quite sure i think they may be different places
If anyone lives near Toxteth Park or West Derby perhaps they could tell us

Hi Wendy

The only one showing is the one Jim has put up.

What you'll have to do is get that certificate and cross ref the parents

Julie

If they married in 1907 and Lily was born c1906/1907 then you're looking for a Lily Powell.
