Im trying to trace the parents of Lillian Evans, she was born in 1884. My grandad has told me her parents were Harold Evans and Mary Turner, and that they were from Wales... However he also mentioned Doncaster and Derbyshire!
She married Garnet Llewellyn Grindrod in Prestwich, Manchester in 1902. They had 3 children, James c1903, Lillian c1904 and Doris 1906, all born in Greater Manchester.

She had 5 siblings, Harold c1870, Robert c1872, Martha c1876, Eliza c1880 .

Any help isolating her parents would be gratefully received.

Thanks
Ben
