Possible death for Florence

Deaths Dec 1918
Jackson Florence M 11 Sedgefield 10a 393

Her birth was registered in 1907 so the age fits.

Hi NinjaLady
It is a possibility as Laura is an unusual name for the times. I think anyway
I have found a possible one for Florence M to James T nicholson in 1930
Still stuck wih Dora
Thanks

There were two Florence Jacksons born a year apart in Sedgefield

Births Jun 1906
Jackson Florence Sedgefield 10a 108

Births Dec 1907
JACKSON Florence May Sedgefield 10a 108

As the death posted was for Florence M I think this is very possibly your young lady who has died. Perhaps the 1918 flu pandemic got her??
