hi im new to this and i was wondering if any body could help me or point me in the right direction to find a connection between
lilly bridgewater born in monmouthshire wales 1891 +/- 1 year and charles bridgewater born in monmouth wales 1871 +/- 1 year
i have found them both in the 1901 census both living in diffrent households and i'm not to sure how to find out how / if they were related
lilly father was called william bridgewater aged 57 in1901 census lilly mother was called maria bridgewater aged 57 in 1901 census
lilly had a son called william thomas bridgewater born 08/09/1910 in crickhowell
the only other information i have on charles is that he raised lilly's son william

You could check their families backwards in the census - they may turn out to be cousins.

Lisa do you have Lily's birth cert? I can't see how she can be the daughter of William & Maria.

From all the previous census Maria would have been 54 at the time of Lily's birth therefore too old to be her mother.
You can get a copy for £7 from the GRO using these details.
