Hi, I'm trying to track down what happened to Elizabeth after the 1911 census which shows her living as a single girl in Witney, Oxon, with her widowed mum Jane Brown and brother John Brown. |

Thanks MarieCeleste, it was a nice try to see if I could do it without ordering the death cert! |

Have had a look in the family notices in the newspaper archives on the off chance there may have been a mention of that death, sadly nothing. |

That's an interesting approach, I've got a lot of ancestors in Witney, Oxon. Was there a particular website you used? |

I use the British Newspaper Archives. I have a sub but I think there's a way to access it through a library membership - might be worth a google? |
