Name: Margaret Curnow
Death Registration Month/Year: 1936
Age at death (estimated): 80
Registration district: Cannock
Inferred County: Staffordshire
Volume: 6b
Page: 483

hi jonesey yes i think thats her but i have no info on her between 1911 and then

I've found this thread via your new thread about John Henry Curnow:
http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1349801

Best to keep all the information together, to avoid duplication of research.

Re your last post about Margaret on this thread -
You're not going to find anything about her between 1911 and her death, until the 1921 census is made public. As she didn't remarry or have any more children after 1911, there's no reason for her to show up on records - unless she did something worth reporting in a newspaper!

Re John Henry Curnow, as per your new thread:

1901 census is posted above. .

Maybe this is him, although YOB a bit out? Clifton is very near Winterbourne:

John Henry Curnow
England and Wales, Birth Registration Index, 1837-2008
birth registration:
1874
Clifton, Gloucestershire, England

As his wife Margaret was visiting her son in 1911 (above), and listed as married, perhaps this could be John Henry, with his mother and siblings. Listed as married, and a coal miner:
