so now Id like to find out more about her, her family... I now know that robert and lucy had no children, so now Im wanting to find out more about Lucy... and her family and all i have to go on so far is that Lucy was born Lucy Knowles in 1912 and her mothers name was cresse

OK,  so do I have the right marriage for Robert and Lucy S Knowles in 1942?

If so the death I have in 1993 of a Lucy S Griffiths could also be her but it gives a birth date of 6th May 1917.....there is a birth registration for a Lucy S Knowles June qtr 1917 mothers maiden Name Littleford - Bridgnorth reg dist 6a 818   Huh

Do you have evidence that it was Lucy with a mothers maiden name Cresse?

well i have the marriage as...
FreeBMD
Marriages Mar 1941   
Griffiths  Robert H  Knowles  Wolverhampton  6b 1204   
Knowles  Lucy S  Griffiths  Wolverhampton  6b 1204

Which would appear right because of the H, in Robert H (his father was William Henry)

1993 does sound about right for her death tho yes, like I say I cant rememebr the exact year, but it was around then so yes that sounds right:)

I dont have evidence that she was born 1912 apart from freebmd again with this...

Births Sep 1912 

Knowles  Lucy  (Mother name>) Creese  Kidderminster  6c
