Can you take a punt at the year when Ada Jenkin died?
and her age-at-death?

This one is interesting for Dennis POVEY (since deceased)
https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/44571/page/4694/data.pdf

On the 1939 register there's a Mary A Jenkin (born 1890) living On Cornwall Street.
Her probate 18 Oct 1982 lists her as Mary Ada JENKIN of Cornwall House Williamstown.
Death has her birth as Feb 1 1890.

Look at the 1939 address, and then see what the neighbour's numbers are

good idea maureen one question I am quite a novice at this is there any way I can look at miss jenkin probate list.Her names on the deeds of my late mothers house deeds and me and my sisters cant sell her house untill miss jenkin is removed from the deeds,our soliciter is finding it very difficult to get her name removed,my mother when she was alive couldnt have known about it,we are at a standstill at the moment I cant believe my solicitor cant find her name anywhere??any help you can give me would be most gratefully accepted.Thank you so much for the help so far.jeffx
