Mabel Hannah STEPHENS
« on: Wednesday 19 November 14 07:57 GMT (UK) »
Mabel Hannah STEPHENS  was born 20 Feb 1903 and died in October 2003 in Birmingham aged 100.
I am curious as to whether there might have been a newspaper entry or is attaining 100 years relatively commonplace?

Would she have received a  card from the Queen?

Might there be a death notice?
Where might she be buried?  I do not have her death certificate therefore no address.
Grateful for any advice as to where to search for information.
Thanks
Dale

  Yes     sadly   just  a  few months short  of her 100th birthday ,     and yes she would have  got  a   Card   from the  Queen , and  no  doubt  a mention  in the   local newspaper also

Kia Ora Jim & Jan
THANK you both  so much! I was unaware of the site you mentioned Jim so will spend an interesting evening seeing if I can find other rellies!
Someone had given me the 2003   date sometime ago hence my other questions.Nevertheless Mabel lived to a great age.
Thank you both again
