Hello, Jess, I know it is a long shot but my aunt remembers a 'Tilly Mutton' who looked after her and her brother when she was small (she is now 80). My nan and her husband used to go off to a nighclub (which I am also trying to find but have no name or exactly where it was only that it was in West End of London) and Tilly looked after them. She was their nanny. Searching every last small piece of info to find out about where my aunt's father went to. Any tiniest tip gratefully appreciated. For all I know, it may not have been her name at all but I will give it a go hunting for her. Thanks again. Much appreciated. Pam. |

Tilly can be a name in its own right. It is generally short for Matilda, but I have a Cornish friend with a daughter Tilly - real name Tillisen. |

This isn't going to help you Pam, but the Tilly in my tree was actually Christened Clara! x |

Hi, I often come across Tilly when I am transcribing for free bmd. It is a name in its own right. Good luck :)) |

my great granmother was called Tilly her name was Matilda. Tilly was also a family nick name for anyone who was bright (like a tilly lamp?) you could try Hilda or Lillian I dont think it would be Taliesin because thats a boys name. she could also have been known by a middle name? Caroline |
