Lilah Agnes Polly Conner was born 24 Jul 1913 Middlesbrough, Yorkshire. Her parents were John Thomas Conner a coppersmith and Harriet Lewis. Lilah was baptised 11 Aug 1913 and parents shown as Thomas a coppersmith and Annie. The family does not seem to appear in 1921. Lilah and her father show up in 1939 living in Middlesbrough. Thomas shows dob as 18 Sep 1880, a widow and occupation is pipefitter. Thomas John Conner dies 15 Nov 1943 Middlesbrough at the 1939 address. He was a coppersmith at steel works and the informant was D J Charlton a daughter. There is a chance that Harriet Conner may have died 1931 Middlesbrough but the death record is not showing up in GRO.
I have the birth, marriage and death records for Lilah but documentation for her parents seems to be hard to find.

Electoral registers show Thomas and Harriet Connor (not Conner) at 14 Davison Street 1919 - 1921.
1921 has the parents transcribed as Corner on one site and children as Conner. Lilah is Lilia.

Thanks heywood. I saw the marriage but at the time I had no info leading me there. I think Harriet birth is shown as Harriett Lily A Lewis registered Jul 1885 Pontypool. This is another registration that does not show up in GRO.
Much appreciated
