Hi Monica,  yes i have been looking into her SWH records. She was ill after she came back with TB and among other places she was last recorded on the IOW in 1923, I looked into death certs on the IOW and found one Clara Leighton that fits into things. However she is remembered at York minster Abbey on the SWH plague and i read she was a pensioner when she died(NOT FROM HER FILES THO). ??? i have her life story now in part thanks to you, and am close to finding her ending.

What is the problem with this that is puzzling you?
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
