Different birth year given in 1939 if this is her. |

The only Yorkshire birth of a Lilian Bradbury 1914 +/- 5 years which would fit a December birthdate if that is her on the 1939 register posted. |

It's a little unusual that the 1939 register hasn't been updated to show a marriage in 1943. |

Probably the baptism of the above Lilian, although this gives birth month as November not December |

Do you have that marriage certificate please. Are you certain that it was your Lilian who married Douglas Grundy? |

Douglas and Lilian Grundy travelled with some of Douglas's family to USA. That Lilian was 28 years old so born c1921. I don't think she's your Lilian. |

As Sandra is new to the boards, I have sent her a PM to let her know that she has replies on here. I have asked her to give her opinion on the findings on here so we all know that she has seen them. |

Thanks everyone, a bit overwhelmed with what i am seeing and going to find time today to process the information properly. Rootgatherer, the top post is definately them, the child is my dad whose birthday was 12 March in Blackpool so not doubt there. The reason i am onto the Grundy link is that when she abandoned my dad and grandad (supposedly for another man) his identity was never revealed/spoken of, the whole family closed up and it was not spoken of despite my dad asking. There was also zero links with the Bradbury family too which i have always found odd. As i searched for Lilian Hession/Bradbury/Woolhouse the only thing that came up was a marriage in 1943 of Lilian Hession & Douglas Grundy so i assumed it must be her as the name Hession is not that common, seems it was my mistake so back to the drawing board on that one, it is a complete mystery what happened to her and it would seem it continues. Thanks so much for all your help as i am really hitting dead ends everywhere and have been for years. Thanks again. x |

PS: When i applied for and got my dads birth certificate it stated Lilians age as 21 years old in March 1936 so i just assumed she was a 1915 birth. |

Can I ask where you got your father's birth certificate from as a birth certificate would not usually have the mother's age on it? |
