Alice was born in 1890's in Wickham Skeith. She married Ernest Stegall in 4th quarter of 1920.
I have photos of her up until approx 1935 but after that I have no record of her other than a family rumour that she left the vilage and went to America or Australia via London. Does anyone have any knowledge of her. Ernest was not with her

A tree on Ancestry has Alice's husband dying in Norfolk 1932


Ernest Steggalls

Birth 1893 in Wickham Skeith, Suffolk, England
Death Jun 1932 in Norwich, Norfolk, England


Maybe Alice re-married

Might help if we did not have three different spellings of the surname

Welcome to the boards, Marion.

Have you contacted the other people who have her in their trees on here to see if they have any more information about her?

Edits (Norfolk, Little Dunham Ernest, War Death 1916)

I'm posting this purely for elimination purposes:

Web: Virginia, Find A Grave Index, 1607-2012
Name: Mary Alice Stegall
Birth Date: 4 Sep 1890
Age at Death: 71
Death Date: 29 Aug 1962
Burial Place: Martinsville, Henry County, Virginia, USA

She was the wife of a Muncie Stegall, she was born in Virginia and I've tracked her on US census from 1910 to 1930.

Maybe the Ernest W Steggalls who died in Norwich in 1932 is the one born in 1893 in Norfolk.

Thanks for the replies.
I have been in touch with the History Recorder for the village of Wickham Skeith. He has all the Parish Records to hand. There is no record of Alice Remarrying in the village. I will have to check with him if there is a record of Ernest dying and being buried in the village. The Stegalls are a very big family in Wickham and surrounding area and all branches seem to have used the same names for their children. Ernest was know as 'Wiffy' Stegalls - I have not found any reference to any children from this couple.

Do you have any details from above Certificate, or have you seen Parish Records?...

Chris :)

Alice Mary Collins married Ernest Steggalls on 30th October, 1920 at St Andrews Church Wickham Skeith 4a 2515.

Death Cert. Ernest Steggalls died 1932 in Norwich Hospital. Informant is recorded as I M Steggalls - wife. 4b 177. This could be a misprint as the certificate is typed and not handwritten.

I have a copy of both these certificates.

I don't think it is correct Marion.

Certificate 4b 177 is for Ernest W Steggall. He was born in 1893 as per the registration I posted above. In 1928 he married Ivy M Short so she will be the I M Steggall who was the informant at his death.

Short Ivy M Steggall Depwade 4b 375
STEGGALL Ernest W Short Depwade 4b 375

What are the details on the marriage certificate? Her father's name and occupation and her age etc. Who were the witnesses?
