Annie E Linford (Rognvaldson) & Lily Linford

[Rognvaldsonfamily]

A Lily Kewley b.28/4/1908 died Mar.qtr.1970.

She must be the Lily Linford birth in June quarter 1908 Sculcoates -  Annie Rognvaldson states has 2 children on census after but only one with them).

I suspect that Lily Linford may have been born before Annie's marriage but only a copy of the birth certificate can tell you that.

Annie Elizabeth Linford had a sister Lily Linford who looks like she married a George Boag in Dec.qtr.1907 Sculcoates and free 1911 index suggests her niece Lily L. is with her.

An update from the information you have all given me.
I am 99% sure now that the right Annie E. Linford is found. thank you all. ;-) I was on a completely wrong track there.   Still havenīt been able to connect Lily Linford the niece of Lily Linford Boag or where she comes from. Was hoping she would be a child of Annie E. sibling.  but no luck yet.     I probably have to order a certificate for her, either the marriage certificate that will tell me the name of father and mother or her birth certificate.

Hello again,

Have you found Annie in 1911 and checked her details?
Have you found Lily Boag - Annie's sister in 1911?

Hello again,

Have you found Annie in 1911 and checked her details?
Have you found Lily Boag - Annie's sister in 1911?

Yes found both of them.   Annie E is registered with her husband Valdimar Rognvaldson and a child George Arthur born 1910 dies year later.   in Clee. Lincolnshire.   (actually it says two childs, but only one mentioned.)  Now wondering if Annie had a child out of wedlock before she married Valdimar, only speculation though.     Lily Boag 23 is registered in 1911 at Sculcoates along with a her Six week old child Doris (dies in 1930)  and a niece Lily Linford 22.  Have not found the niece yet or her parents.

On other indexes the niece Lily is 2 yrs old.
 If she is described as a niece she is likely to be the child of one of Lily Boag's sibling and that could be Annie.
As Annie's other child is missing, it could be assumed that 2 yr old Lily in the Boag household is Annie's before marriage.

Ahh.. you mean the 22 yr old niece is 2 years old in 1911. A mistake in the register.?  When I have a close look at it, there is an inksmear just next to the two.  And I canīt see a the number two under there.   You are most likely right there ;-)

If this is right i.e. Lily being Annies daughter before marriage.  It is most likely that she is the child of Valdimar too.   Very exciting.  If this is right, I might actually have some relatives alive in Grimsby!  I had lost all hope of that when I was checking this all out in 2012.  Even visited Grimsby and the cemetery Valdimar and Annie are buried.  When I called the nursing home she died at, I was told by someone that remembered Annie that she had no immediate family. They must have just meant then that she had no child of her own.    Is it common that a child that is born before marriage always carries the mothers maiden name?  Even though she knows who is her father? 

The story of my great grandfather was always that he had two daughters in Grimsby..  I only found Annie so we thought that was wrong.

You would need certificates to see what they say.
However she remains as Linford so she didn't take Valdimar's name.

If Lily was indeed the daughter of Annie Eliza Linford her birth would be registered under her mothers legal name at the time which was Linford.   As Annie was unmarried I doubt very much that Lily's birth certificate will name a father (Valdimar or otherwise).

Quite simply, Linford was Lily's legal name.

An update.  I got mail today.  ;-) 
I just got the marriage certificate for Lily Linford marrying Leonard F. Kewley on 26th of august 1933.  On the Certificate George Linford (deceased) is listed as Lilyīs father.  A. Rognvaldson is listed as a witness.   Now I am even more confused.     . Well at least I know now that she was not the daughter of Valdimar Rognvaldson.     Still trying to link Lily to Annie E. Linford (Rognvaldson wife)
