Was she unmarried when she died?

Have you found her parents' names from her birth certificate?

Have you found her on the 1911 census?

Have you looked to see if she is in anyone's tree on here?

How are you connected to her?

Sorry for all the questions, it is just useful to know what you know.

Thank-you
