Welcome to Rootschat Shelley.
You will need to get the marriage certificate of your grandparents. That will show who her father was at least and if she was still living at home the address. It is harder to find people after 1901 than before. Depending on the address you can look at various directories, electoral rolls etc. but you will need to visit a library unless you can get someone on here to look things up for you.
I'm sure more experienced Rootschatters will give you some ideas.
Lizzie
ps. Just looked at your profile and realise you've been a member of Roots for some time, but I'd not seen your name before, hence the welcome

Tati
My brain was out of gear, I started to look up the birth, then thought "Oh no point looking she's not on the 1901 census!" I think it's called having a senior moment.

That's perfect, Shelley!
Not many Lily Ruth Cartwrights births registered ca. 1900. The one that I see is - bingo - in the Dudley registration district:
Lily Ruth Cartwright Sep quarter 1900 Dudley 6c 41
Sep 1900 meaning she must be on the 1901 census as well. What were May's father's name & occupation according to the marriage certificate?
For now I quite like this family:
1901 RG13/2734 145 10 Tipton, Staffordshire (Dudley registration district) n°4 n°1 Court Waterloo Street 2 rooms occupied John Cartwright, head, 35, Ironworks? Labourer Eliza, wife, 34 Alice, dau, 7 Elizabeth, dau, 4 Gladys, dau, 2 Lilly, dau, 9 months
All born Tipton
