I will ask the moderator to move your post to the Derbyshire board

Have you contacted the cemetary or the records office to see if they have the info you want?

From 1937 Pinxton came under Chesterfield Reg District - are you sure she was living in Pinxton when she died?

Where are they living on the 1939 register?
