Hi Thanks for replies I sent for the Elliston - Smith marriage certificate but afraid this is not the Lily Smith I am looking for as the Lily on certificate was 26 yrs old spinster when married and her father was a James Smith Thank again

Thank you so much i have sent for certificates if this is correct lily then i shall endeavour to purchase more hopefully find some blood relatives on Peters maternal side that are living. Who knows they may know through grapevine who his father was.
The information you have given is above and beyond expectations
Thank you again :-)
