  HEADSTONE - Doxey John & Lily
  
  Lily was born on June 23rd, 1887 in Glasgow.³
  - Birth Notes
    - She was 13 in 1901 census, so born 1887/8.
      Death record has Birth Date: 23 Jun 1887
      
      Sue’s Nana was a very strong character. A lady from Glasgow. Sue remembers once asking her nana when her birthday was, and she said she could not remember. Sue said look on your birth certificate, but her reply was she never had one as her parents could not afford such things. Her gravestone does not record her date of birth.
  She died at the age of 83 in June 1970 in Manchester. Her burial was in Manchester.³⁴
  - Death Notes
    - Lily died when Sue Doxey was about 15-6, so about 1968-69.
      
      Sue believes it was about August 1969 (mayby earlier) when Lilly died. The family were away on holiday in Bornemouth for 2 weeks, and her nana passed away on the Wednesday of the first week they were away. Poor Laurie and family only got the new from a neighbour on their return from Bornmouth after Lily had been buried.
      
      Recorded death was Q2-1970, so must have died June or earlier.
