POTTERs of Ilkeston

[coalmantrains]

Trying to find details of my grandmother from Ilkeston name of Alice Gertrude Potter
She had two sisters that I know of May and Edith. both spinsters.
She married Samuel White and lived at 15 Stanton Road, Ilkeston at the time of the birth of a daughter Mavis Mary in 1921.
Thats the only detail I have

Hi Coalmantrains 

What sort of information are you after?

I can see her on the 1901 census. Give me a sgout if you want the details. RG13/3152 5 1

I am trying to find any information, as I have only just found out her name from my mothers birth certificate, which I have just obtained.
I knew my great Aunts when I was younger (May and Edith) but never knew my grand mother, or even her name as they died sometime when I was a child.
With no known relatives I have struggled to find this side of my family tree

OK so this is the 1901 census 
RG13/3152 5 1
Ilkeston, Derbyshire
1 Cricket Ter
William Potter, head, 42, Coal Hewer, b. Ilkeston
Mary W, wife, 42, b. Nottingham
Alice G, dau, 8, b. Derbyshire Ilkeston
May E, dau, 7, b. do.
Edith D, dau, 1, b. do.
Thomas, father, wid, 72, Retired Warp Hand Factory, b. do.

In 1891, William and Mary W are all by themselves in Ilkeston at 10 Union Road, and this should be William in 1881: http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=uki1881&indiv=try&h=2612908

Great news and many thanks, I have tried to find this info before but not having any details just could not get anywhere.
This gives me something to work on so again thanks.
