Can anyone help please. I can't find any further mention of this relative beyond 1911 census when she was living with her uncle,Francis Passey and his family. I know she was engaged as I inherited her engagement ring but can't find any trace of her in the marriage records. She probably died before 1926,as my father didn't know his Aunt. Her sister was Elsie May Jukes born 1893 in Kensington.

Just for reference:

Births Sep 1895
Jukes Dorothy Kensington 1a 86

I think that I would tend to have a more open mind on whether she ultimately married and indeed when she might have died. The fact that your father did not know her may have been because they did not live close enough to visit. For example there is this marriage and death which might be linked.
