Find Ancestors

I am hoping to find any family of my Aunt Ida Francis Ashworth born London Dec 1909. Her mother was Lilian Ashworth( maiden name was Horrocks )from Burnley Lancs. Ida was taken back to Burnley soon after her birth and at age five was fostered to a family in Wigan who owned a grocers shop. Ida probably married but I have no idea of her married name. Her mother Lilian had my father Stanley in May 1908 he was born in Bishop Auckland when Lilian was married to Willie Ashworth. Lilian had another child called Alice Martins Ashworth in March 1912 Alice has died but I have met her daughter Heather, my cousin. Willie Ashworth was not the father of either girl. I would really like to find any relatives of my aunt Ida Ashworth if any of them read this please get in touch with me.

Update,I am still hoping to find details of my aunt Ida Asworth or any relative she may have had. :-)

Not seeing anything on her .maybe she took on the surname of her foster parents

If she kept her first name and middle name and you had her exact date of birth it may be possible to find a death using that information.

Have you looked in search trees on here?

Hello everyone,thank you for your replies.

Mother Lilian Ashworth formerly Horrocks of 25 Belgrave Street,Nelson,Lancs.

Registered 6 th January 1910

In 1909 this was the Hackney workhouse which I visited in the 1980s and is now a Hospital .
Lilian also had her son Stanley Ashworth my father age 2 staying with her.
After she gave birth to Ida Frances she must have retuned to Burnley.
Any info will be most helpful.
