Once they merge it will be clearer what's known and people can just concentrate on the adoptive side of family which is the route you're now following.

Does her (Lucy) age in 1939 (if you believe it to be accurate) agree with her baptism or birth certificate?

Have we asked what information there is on her death certificate, and if you have not got these, are you going to get them?

'Also trying to trace Lucy's whereabouts with clarence bamford price after leaving royston.'
What did he say about his whereabouts to either you or your parents/aunts/uncles?

One of you has put:
'Lucy then lived at  at 2 Earnshaw Place, Balne lane Wakefield on the 1939 census with what seems to be her daughter Margaret Priestley, Lucy is listed as widowed.

Was Lucy Priestley , Lucy Price his adoptive mother?'

The marriage certificate of Clarence to Theresa in 1934 (West Yorkshire Marriages) gives his address as 2 Earnshaw Place Balne Lane.

I wish I could agree with you, but I find 2 merged posts very difficult to negotiate, and start re-checking things that I posted myself.

Cannot find Lucy Pullan and/or her mother in 1891.

How about:
Lucy Pullan marries Booth Rhodes, who has been recently widowed.
Marriage not successful, they split.
She takes up with Mr Railton, and uses that name, even when no longer living with him (1901 census).
Marries Mr Price, naming George Pullan as her Father.
etc etc.

Problem is, I have compared Lucy Pullan's signature and Lucy Railton's signature, and I do not think they are the same.
If someone could post them on here, it would be useful, my computer is not set up to do so without using an intermediary computer.
