The Ryerson index has several death notices listed for Joan Jenkinson but all can be discounted looking at Electoral rolls.
See below

The 1977 Electoral Roll also has David William Jenkinson
at the same address as Joan at Raymond Terrace

and another possibility from Ryerson index

Latest ER's South Australia on Ancestry appear to be 1951 (but even then look incomplete). As said on previous thread, the records don't appear to be as up to date as other states (others 1980)

FMP finish earlier

Have you looked in the phone book - as you're posting now on FLR?

On Ancestry at least, Australian ERs only go up to 1980.


Jenkinson is the family name Ian's looking for:
https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1394411

Per that thread:
"The wife of John Jenkinson [ the man who died 1972 ] was Joan FLITCROFT b1935 they married in 1954 in Carlisle, England not found her death yet in Australia"

Are you able to post John Jenkinson's children's names, Ian ? - no other detail if they're still living.

Think it’s limited because Australia has strict privacy laws

Some are on ancestry but only if you have worldwide subs
