A Leslie W Hodges b 23.11.1922 is on an outgoing passenger list to Australia in 1957. Also a Betty Hodges b 9.9.1929.  Address was West Wickham & they married 1950 in Croydon

Is this the same Leslie?

Are the solicitors quoting her whereabouts & marital status from the contents of the will?  If so - when was the will made? 

Start by looking up her birth to establish her birth year - www.freebmd.org.uk

Then use GRO online to establish whether she is deceased - only deaths to 2021 are available

https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/indexes_search.asp

Check for Obituary notices

Some London Electoral registers are available online depending on what date is involved

EDIT

"Address was Camden as a Miss although she had married & lived for many years in Herne Bay with him"

Where was Leslie born?  Have you located him on the 1939 register?  Is Joanne living with him?

Have you looked for him on the 1881 census?

https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/list?cqs=england+census

Egremont came under Whitehaven RD & there is a birth in the Dec qtr 1875 on freebmd which may be his.  If so his mothers maiden name was Dumagan as per GRO online

https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/Login.asp

There is an 1857 marriage on freebmd of Charles Lowther & Susannah Dummigan

There is this 1881 possibility as he named his son Charles

Be interesting to see if he acknowledges his son in his will

What is her interest in it?  Is she just looking for the address?
