Find Ancestors

Hi everyone- some advise please .
How can I find the birth details of someone born in USA in 1901. Not sure of mothers name or fathers but the child was Lillie (Lilly) Lockwood b USA 1901and on 1911 (where I found the ref to USA birth )census she was age 10 living in Saddleworth with her Grandmother Elizabeth Priest b1849 and Lillie Farr b1881. I want to know if Lillie Farr was the mother of Lillie Lockwood or not ? And if not - who was she ? Thanks for any help in this matter .

Hope all that made sense - basically would like to know parents of Lillie( or Lilly/Lily Lockwood .

She should be on the incoming passenger lists but I can't find her.

I think this is grandparents and Lillie in 1901

EDIT yes it is Lillie Farr on image

I believe on that 1901 census she's Lillie Priest. It looks like the enumerator started to write "dau" for daughter in the wrong column and the transcriber thought it was her surname Dan.

Second thought: Just looked again, it could be Farr.

Margaret

I think it is Farr,

There is this marriage

Marriages Jun 1895 (>99%)

Farr Elizabeth Saddleworth 9a 430
PRIEST Thomas Saddleworth 9a 430

Grandparents marriage so Lillie was a child of Elizabeth Farr, either from a previous marriage or illegitimate:

Snap! Rose.

In 1891 The Farrs with an older daughter..Mary E ...maybe she is the young Lillie's mother?

Maureen

double OOH...

on the 1891 Mary E is a "woollen shawl fringer"!

I'm just looking at the incoming to Philly records. Guess who they traveled with? Thomas and Elizabeth Priest!!

Margaret-can you decipher where/who they're going to? It's a married Priest daughter?? Buckley?? in Roxborough (a neighbourhood in Philadelphia).

Maureen

So the question is which of the Farr girls married George Lockwood in the US?
