Hi I'm looking for birth, marriage and death dates for a Lilian Hunt she was married to Arthur Hunt and had 3 children, Doris Lilian Goodyear Hunt (born 1899), Gertrude Hunt (born 1894) and Arthur Hunt (born 1896). I'm guessing that Goodyear was her maiden name. If anyone can help that would be really great. Thanks
 
Arthur is listed on the 1901 and 1891 census as being born in Norton, Gloucestershire. Lillian is listed on the 1901 as being born in Thrapstron on Stour, Worcs. I think that should be Shipston on Stour.

In 1891 Arthur is working in Shipston, so that is possibly where they married. Can't find a marriage registration that fits though.

Apart from Doris who was born in Birmingham, Gertrude was born in Newington, London and Arthur in Reading, Berks.

They certainly moved around a lot!
 
Thanks v much Sue. Could you tell me their ages i the 1901 census so i can at least work out their birth dates. Thanks v much.
 
In 1901 Arthur is a Drapers assistant aged 31. Lillian is 30. Gertrude is 17, Arthur is 5 and Doris is 2.
 
I think Gertrude is 7 not 17, there is a mark on the census which looks like a 1, but I don't think it is.

I did have a quick look for birth registrations but couldn't find anything obvious. If you obtain the birth certificate for Doris Lilian Goodyear it will give the monther's maiden name.
