Re the coroner's report Neil, I suggest you start a new topic with a heading:

'CORONER'S report look up please.'

It is held @ Wellington Archives and a very kind Rootschatter may be able to do this for you.

Here are the details required to help that person:

Hi Neil

She can be found in 1901 census at West Derby in the household of Eliza EVANS (mother of Eleanor).

Eliza EVANS - wife - 56 - Confectionery Shop (Own account) - at home - b. Notts - Mansfield
- Sidney - son - 29    "
- Alexander - son -26   "
- Frederick - son - 24 - coachman ? / painter  (or coach painter ? )
- Gilbert H. - son - 15 - commercial assistant
- Eleanor - dau - confectionery shop assistant
- Amy E. - dau -    "
- Lucy ALCOCK - 58yrs - sister-in-law *- confectionery shop - b. Notts - Mansfield

[Note :  All children  ^ born Lancs - Liverpool   -- Sidney and Alexander appear to also work in the confectionery shop. ]

   ~  Lu

*  incorrectly described as "sister-in-law" (was sister of Eliza EVANS).

THanks Lu, yes Lucy seems to have lived with the Evans family throughout, and according to the newspaper report when she died she went to NZ in 1913, which it seems was when Elanor was ill so that may have been the catalyst for her going at there at 72. 
Thanks

Per "Athenic" - departed London 27-3-1913 - for New Zealand

ALCOCK - Lucy - 68 years - occ:  Housekeeper
