Hi There , I am trying to get a dob dod of an Ella Banfield in Somerford Keynes I believe she had the nickname skip

[KGarrad]

Any clues as to when?
1700's?
1800's?

Was Banfield her maiden name or married name?

[harris122]

sorry I thought I wrote more than I did. we are talking 1900's and I believe that was her maiden name. She was still living in 70's.

Do you know when she was born and who she married.  Any death would be under her married name

Do you know if she had any other christian names apart from Ella

Was her "proper" name Ella or was it short for Ellen or Eleanor

If there is any possibility that she is still living - please do not post any personal details

I managed to find out that she died in 1996 and she was a spinster so she never married. I wouldn't put it up if I wasn't sure if she hadn't passed

[KGarrad]

Where did she die?

The only death that comes close (that I can find) is:

November 1995
Leeds, Yorkshire
N9C 0921N

Doris Ella Banfield, age 88

she died in somerford Keynes I managed to track down someone who knew her and they were able to let me know

There are no deaths in Gloucs 1995-1997 that fit her name.  Do you know whether Ella was a "nickname"?

Somerford Keynes is in the Cirencester RD (I think)  but there are no deaths there either
