Help with an obituary circa 1967
« on: Monday 27 May 19 19:20 BST (UK) »
Just wondering if anyone could help with some information please.

An ancestor of mine ended up living in Weymouth ( don`t know why or when they moved there). With the help of several kind contributors a marriage for the couple was found ( Leicester 1913 ), however it is the wife who survived the husband by five years who I am interested in.

She passed away in November 1967 and the last address was given as St Marys Street in Weymouth.

My question is, If there was an obituary what newspaper would it have been in?

Many thanks in advance Steve.
Banbury and Hall families from Leicester 1850 to 1950.

Parfery or Parfrey family from Norfolk or Cambs 1800 to 1900.
