Sarah Phillips
« on: Thursday 18 July 19 12:47 BST (UK) »
I have just received the death cert of Sarah Phillips 26th Mar 1923 Portsmouth one of my ancestors.
The informant on the cert was 'S.Duke daughter of deceased' . Sarah did not marry (?) so assume she had a daughter out of wedlock. I can find a birth of a Sarah Phillips Jun 1889 but not a marriage.
Can anybody help further? Would like to know more about her. Any Assistance greatly appreciated

Sarah was 56 when she died in 1923 so born approx 1866/67

Have you found her on censuses 1891 - 1911?

A GRO maiden name search has no Sarah Phillips birth in 1889 in the Hampshire area without a mmn.  The June 1889 birth you mention was Sarah Ann mmn Jennings

So, was S.Duke born as such i.e  registered in that name? Or married in to that name?

Does the cert say Mrs or Miss?  If it just says S Duke - you don't even have a full christian name let alone a marital status

Have you read Rosie's question above re address

The 1939 register has a Sarah Duke living in Hampshire.  You may want to compare address details with the death cert although it was 16yrs after the death
