At this moment in time we do not know if your Lilian May is the one who had a child in the workhouse or not but there is another child born out of wedlock to a Lilian May Bullock:

Births Sep 1914
Bullock Kate Bullock Westbury S. 6a 507

and this is the baptism:

There is a marriage for a Kate Bullock to Ivor George Askew on 19 December 1936. Father is said to be Charles Bullock and the witness is Maurice Charles Bullock and this is his birth reg:

Child Surname Child Forename Father Surname Mother Surname
Mother's Former Name Year District Office Register Entry
BULLOCK Maurice Charles BULLOCK BULLOCK BELCHER 1894
Forest of Dean Westbury on Severn, Newnham (from 1893) 1 225

This birth registration tells us that he is Lilian May's brother.

Whilst the evidence so far suggests that the Lilian May Bullock who had a daughter Kate out of wedlock later married Albert Nelmes we must exercise caution. The decision to obtain the marriage certificate for Lilian May is a wise one.
