Lily GOTHAM
Set As Default Person -
Name Lily GOTHAM Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 27 Dec 1890 Consett, Co. Durham, England
- From the 1911 census where shown as aged 20 (and shown born Stoke on Trent, but her birthplace given in the 1891 census, when aged 3 months - Consett, Co. Durham fits with birth registration)
GRO ref: Gothan, Lily q1 1891 Lanchester RD 10a 325; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Bell
Actual date from death registration - IF I have the correct death (see death notes)
Shown as born 27 Nov 1890 in the 1939 registration
Gender Female Registration 1939 Residence 1973 15, Kentmere Place, Clayton, Newcastle under Lyme, Staffordshire, England
At the time of her death - From burial register
Died 27 Feb 1973 Cheadle Reg Dist, Staffordshire, England
- GRO ref: Gotham, Lily dob 27 De 1890 reg q1 1973 Cheadle RD 9b 327Actual date from Staffordshire BMD Indexes, 1837-2017 on Ancestry, Reference Number: L&C 13 151 (21 Jul 2019). This also shows that it was this Lily and not her sister-in-law (wife of her brother Thomas) as this index includes women's Christian names and there is none for this Lily.
The date of birth in this entry doesn't match either Lily in the 1939 registration, but this one was recorded as born 27 Nov so I think there was just a small error in the month.
