I am trying to find the date of death of my grandmother and have spent a great deal of time and some money getting no-where.
My grandmother's maiden name was Harrison born in 1873 in Bangalor India. Father's name William and mother's name Briget. Mary Ann married William Whewell on 5th April 1895. I have found her in the 1911 census aged 38 along with her husband and son William (15) son Moses (10) son James (8) daughter Mary Alice (7) son Joseph (3) and baby son Charles 4 months old. This is the last I can find of her. Now not knowing the date of her death how can I find it? I would appreciate some help from you knowledgable folk out there please.

There are to many deaths to wade through.
A location might help.
