Thank you all for your efforts. i did have all the above, just needed to confirm that Lillie was a short name for Elizabeth. It was her job at the crown which is the relevant bit.
Again best wishes to all.

WAWNE, JANE ANN mmn HANSELL

I think you are right about the 1863 baptism in Alne. On the image it says they lived in Tollerton.

Thanks Kathleen. Nearly every time I go for 1 on my iPad it ends up as 2.

There is only one birth for a Jane Ann Wawne on Findmypast and that is in 1871 in Malton, North Yorkshire.

In 1911 she was working at another hotel in Scarborough (The Ramshill Hotel) so maybe that is how they met.

Kath. x

Administration of the will is given to Jane Ann Wawne, spinster. Elizabeth left £3923 17s. 6p.

Kath. x

The address on the probate for Elizabeth/Lillie is 14 The Esplanade rather than 24 as posted above.

14 the Esplanade seems to be close to The Crown Hotel.

Kath. x

Elizabeth Raper baptised Alne 10 June 1863, parents Thomas & Mary looks favourite if Lillie is Elizabeth.

Scarborough death looks good but birth...???
Am actually researching for the Crown hotel and she as the third manager.

No. She died in Scarborough in 1934. Elizabeth also known as Lillie Raper. There is a will.
24 The Esplanade, Scarborough

Her birth may not have been registered. There were no penalties for not registering at that time.

This could be a possibility (Knaresborough is only about 15 miles from Tollerton):-

marriage is a possible .. already got a note of it. It's her birth/baptism which are illusive.

Also, I forgot to say that you can have a look at the 1921 as a basic search - everyone has to pay for downloads. Even if you have a sub to FMP

Edit as she had been manageress there for some time it is worth looking out for her in the local papers.

There is this possible marriage:-
