When was he born?

And would his name not have been Leonard?

Have you tried looking yourself?

https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

It would help if you told us when Lilian was born..............or WHEN the man was at the address you give. He wasn't recorded at the address on the 1939 register

If you want to look at the birth certificate you'll need to buy credits (30 for £7.50) and use 6 of them to download it. SP doesn't show Mother's maiden name

Possibly marriage of her parents going by RD - again you can use credits to look at and download the certificate

Clearly, the father of Lilian was not the child at Rigby Street

It needs to be established whether Isabel was a widow when she re-married.

Hi Erikah i have found the board, god lot of stuff on there lol, you ask what i have got info wise. I have obtained Lilian's marriage and death certificate and this is where i got Leanard's name from, you see my dad married Lilian in 1943 my dad was 17 and Lilian was 18 Lilian and my dad had a child both Lilian and their child died in 1945 of T.B. The marriage certificate shows her father as Learnard Percy "Deceased" This was never talked about in my family and my dad married my mum in 1947 so i am intrigued as to who Lilian was and her son ( my half brother) also i would like to find out their graves as thought would be fitting to scatter some of my dad's ashes there. So really this is all i have Lilian was 18 years old when she died which was December 18th 1945
