Obviously shouldn't have been included!
Once you've ruled out that it's the same person and that you have her date of death correct, it must just have been a mistake by the person who completed the form. I wonder if she was posthumously issued an identity card and ration book?

Her husband must have filled in the form, its the right person and address, most queer.

It might be he "wasn't ready to let go" yet - or even that he did it to get an extra ration book.  Probably the former and wanted to enter her as "not forgotten" and to see her name written down one more time.

Are they the only two in the house? Are there any added notes that would show it is a mistake?
