Hello, another of my ww1 Scottish Women's Hospital lady's. Gulielma, served in Serbia in ww1 as a driver. I know her war year/s but i am seeking her death date. Born in 1890 in Taunton her father was Henry, and a bank manager.  If anyone has details of her death please let me know or even a little more detail post 1917.

many thanks Alan

She appears to have married a John T. Witts in Rome, Italy between 1916-1920 (per British Nationals Marriages on FindMyPast).

She was married according to Great Western Railway shareholders 1835-1932

Gulielma Ewart Richardson spinster, Hotel Royal Rome

then wife of Captain John Travell Witts

Certificate of marriage British Consulate Rome.

The date on that document is 22nd Oct  1918, so I presume she married either then or before that.

It is on a sheet that says probates and other entries say Death certificates, but above her name it says Certificate of marriage.

Just seen the other posts that explain it!
