Hi

On the FreeBMD I cannot see a Lilian Roberts b. 1871 Leeds, the closest is 1868 Bramley or Bradford and 1874 Leeds, Lilian Blanche Roberts.

There are possible Lily Roberts' in 1870 and 1872 in Bradford and Barnsley.

Is the date you give definitely a birth and not a baptism?

According to the 1881 Census the Lily Roberts born Hunslet is the daughter of William Crooks Roberts, a theatrical machinist and his wife Grace, a dressmaker.

Hi,

Just checking is Roberts her maiden or married name?

Did Lillian marry if so who did she marry?

 

[juliejtp]

Hi,

Did she marry George Thomas Furbank. If so her father is given as William Cooke Roberts occ carpenter (dec'd). Witneses James Oliver Roberts/
Elizabeth Ann Furnbank. She is aged 19yrs year of birth about 1870.
