Mary Potter married a Benjamin Pountney in 1915, possibly in Warwickshire. Her parents were Joseph Potter and Rose Hannah Potter (nee Morgan).Rose is at various times listed as Roseannah.I believe Mary may have died between 1918 and 1922 but cannot confirm this. Am going by what is listed on Rose's death cert.
Prior to her marriage in 1915 , Mary was listed as a brass driller.

Then the death I found isn't the one you are looking for.

No deaths for a Mary Pountney of right age in your timespan

Tks Lindsay and Astra,
I have come to the conclusion that Mary A and her spouse Benjamin, may have migrated to Australia to join her parents and siblings. Will have a look see in West Australia.
I have gone right up to round 1950 looking for possible deaths just in case the info on the death cert was in error.

Tks agn , Joe.
