There's a Maggie (not Meggie) who died in Durham area 1968 age 84 - might that be her.

You would have to send for the death certificate to find where she was living when she died.

Jun 1968
Durham N 1A 406
Lumsden Maggie 84
Hinchliffe - Huddersfield Wiltshire
Burroughs - Arlingham Glos
Pick - Frocester Glos

I'm afraid I don't know where she was born but she married Ralph Lumsden in  1910 - June I think

Meggie Stoker         Chester-le-S.    10a   1012

You should be able to find them on the 1911 census ,and by putting in Lumsden as the surname and Stoker as the mother's name,on http://www.freebmd.org.uk/ you'll get any children they had after 1911.

Ooh thanks. I have had a quick look at the free census and it only goes up to 1891.   I am very new and very green at this Searching on Roots so can you please guide me through - will be very grateful.
