age    74   
Barnstaple  5b   532

That looks the right one. Full name Rose Ellen Grimes
Free search of the 39 Register has Rose E Grimes, born 1868, living in Barnstaple M.B., Devon
Putting Rose into "Other household member's" for Barnstaple brings up John W H Matthews, and May G Matthews, both born 1911

Birth, March qtr 1912, Dursley 6a 479
Grimes, May Gladys
mother Davis
May married Mr Matthews in Barnstaple in 1935

Not sure about the 1955 death for Thomas though.
In 1891 they were in Trevethin, Monmouth (Pontypool district). Could they have gone back to that area?
Death, March 1928, Pontypool 11a 194
Grimes, Thomas
age 58

I agree that the 1928 death for Thomas is a good possibility - I can't see him prior to WW2  ;)

That 1928 death looks very possible for Thomas?

Note all of these show baptisms in Wooton under Edge on Ancestry, Father. Thomas Mother Rose Ellen or Helen or in the case of May G Grimes mother Rosa

Herbert could possibly be the death Dec 1966 Pontypool 8c 250 aged 64?

Hi again,  you make a point of George in 1901 Wootton under edge aged 13 was he born prior to the marriage of Thomas Grimes to Rose Ellen Davis in 1889:-

George Davis September qtr 1887 Dursley 6a 236 no mothers maiden name ( suggests illegitimate)
Keyboard86

EDIT in 1891 Thomas Grimes 22 b Kingswood occ Coal Miner
Rose Ellen 23
George 3 b Wootton under edge
Frederick 5 months b Wootton under edge
Residing at Dyke Row, Mill Road,  Trevethin, Pontypool
Census ref RG12/4362/54/4

PS why wait until the 1921? most of us purchase the most likely death certificate in the hope it is the correct one, if not try again, or do you only wish to locate your family history by census returns??
