I am a beginner.  I am trying to find internet records of my mother's birth, marriage and death.  I know the names, approximate dates and location, however, I cannot get a match on Ancestory.co.uk.  Can someone help.  Her name is Lily Lowe (nee Genders).  born in Yorkshire 1928 (plus or minus one year).  Married a Mr. Lawrance Kelly (date and location not known).  Died 13th December either 1967 or 1968.  Thank you.

Welcome !

Apologies for asking, but are you using the 'full' GRO records on Ancestry ?

Have checked previous/later quarters - the above seems to be the only Lily Genders.

Any idea when her marriages would have occurred, roughly lzadig? For instance, at what point in time do you know she was married to Mr Lowe?  :)
