Please could anyone fine the death of a Miss Theodora/Theadia/Dorrie/Dora/Dolly Saunders b 1893.

She went by several variations of her real name which was Theodora Alice.

She died in Canada after 1991 as I have a photo dated June 1991.

Canadian records are much less freely available than those for the UK. They have much more stringent privacy rules.

Where in Canada was she living when the photo was taken?

In view of her longevity, newspapers might be a better bet…..or simply googling

Googling shows a request for information was put out on rootschat in 2010. A photo was included and Posts showed her movements across the Atlantic and a connection to Kent
