If deceased,try the 1939 register where she should appear using both surnames .

if you get to look at the Bowling registers themselves , they should have an address for the deceased. In several instances an infant will also have a named mother and father.

And if it hasn't made it onto familysearch.org , then the local lds family history Centre can access it online through their computers

Okay, so for a smidge of encouragement,  DNA tests have identified a half cousin from a mutual mother (she married twice, so paper trail too) .

Mother, each father b around 1810.

So if she had subsequent kids with the not father, I'd say there is a decent chance.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: DNA to solve brickwalls?

I've just submitted a test sample. What prompted it was the revelation that along with his wordly goods, my late dad (appears) to have left my siblings and I a half-sister (b 1949) . (whoops!)

She had managed via cousin-matching DNA to zero in on her great-grandparents, then her/our  grandparents. A first name matching dear old dad was in the adoption paperwork, and theres a limited pool of grandkids to choose from...

so if this is yes/no question (can it be done), i'm going to have to say, yes

I have since realised That I also have a marriage for a Lydia to the namesake.
so:
Found and purchased the correct birth certificate (father was deceased) and
found newborn as an unnamed child in household of his Paternal grandfather .

It's s good day today

is there any way of reporting a useless digital copy?
Mine is mis-aligned, so Father may or may not have a first name, and I cannot see mother's first name at all.

She's ann at marriage (1859) , unseen on birth certificate(1860) , Lydia at birth address(1861) and Ann Eccleston (middle name) at 1864 baptism...

A hawker or pedlar required a licence.
