Yes Keziah did marry Mr Gillett. Didnt know his full name though. Thankyou. All i was told was she had married a miserable taxi driver.

I actually thought she could be this one and got the birth cert back in 2008 and unfortunately she is nothing to do with us. In fact how do i get rid of certs that I dont need. Any ideas?

God i'm thick. Address on cert is Victoria Terrace, Deddington

What is the address on the death cert? its got to be easier to look back to the previous year in a street directory

I'll look back at 1901 and try to see an address. Death cert is district - woodstock, sub-district is deddington. Maybe thats where they lived. I'll check quickly.

Why was babys death reg at Woodstock if they lived in Banbury?

Not sure. 1901 census states that dad Ralph H Greaves was boarding with sister and Mum, keziah wilkes was still at home with her parents. Both living near or in Banbury.

what was their address at the time of her birth please

Deaths Greaves on the 5th inst aged 70yrs Eliza wife of Mr. Ralph Greaves of Heathersage Derbyshire. Deceased was the last surviving niece of the late Colonel Handley of Trinidad West Indies

None of them are her. lilian's parents were definately in Oxford and thats where she died. I'm sure she must have been born there.

They could have been pretty much anywhere when the baby was born. how have you discounted the following?

Mar 1902 qtr GREAVES Lilian Mansfield 7b 112
June 1902 qtr GREAVES Lily Mansfield 7b 112
sept 1902 Greaves Lily Wolverhampton 6b 722
dec 1902 GREAVES Lilian Leeds 9b 372
GREAVES Lily Chorlton

Thank you all for your help. Tempest, could you please see if Lilian H Greaves appears in your Christening records, either under Greaves or Wilkes. As i said before, she died 4 mar 1904 at the age of 9mths. Still can not find a birth cert. Thanks
