You need the marriage cert of Alice and John as there are other possible Alices on 1871 with different parents.
So you need her fathers name from the marriage cert.

Hi Fbg, the birth dates of john hatcher & alice are ok and Ada rings a bell ~ so I think we are on the right track, I've no idea when they married ~ it's the parents of Alice Louisa Davies that I cannot find ~ I'm just wondering if her family originated from 'Glamorgan' (your hint of a daughter Lily who seemed to have lived or was born there) ~ I am so stuck on this one, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack, many grateful thanks for your kind help.
