Sorry Stanley, I have no idea if this is the correct lady or not.

You could try purchasing the death certificate to see what information is on it but there may not be anything except, perhaps, who registered the death.

Alternatively, you could purchase Wilfred's marriage certificate to see what he describes himself as, but that would still not prove that the death is of Beatrice Mary Green.

Regards, Liz

Do you know if Wilfred was a widower when he remarried? Or perhaps divorced?

Many thanks to everyone who responded with some really useful information and leads. May I add one more question to the mix?
Wilfred remarried to Evelyn Warne in Aug 1928 but what happened to Beatrice before then? Presumably she must have died biut where/when?
