She didn't seem very lucky then if she was a widow again by 1911.  ;D

I found her by looking for the address in 1901 on FindMyPast. Certainly looks like her doesn't it?

It does seem to be her. I have just found her burial:May 1933.

She was still living in Centenary Street. I don't know what this means -Notes d12/4 and I also found a report about her death in the newpaper on FindMyPast. Quite sad really.

I expect that you are right.
Now to find out who M. C. James and Mrs C. James who are mentioned in the newspaper report.
