Cannot find any death details for my great grandmother, Help please
« on: Thursday 06 February 20 16:09 GMT (UK) »
I'm hoping this is following the site etiquette?
I have searched continually now following every lead I can for any details on my great grandmothers life and death.
Her maiden name was Susan Ellen House and she was born circa May 1878 in Portsmouth, Hampshire. Her parents were Henry House and Sarah Rodley.
She had five children including my grandfather but all of the siblings fell out, rendering any further contact almost impossible. I would seriously appreciate it if someone can help me get some info on the death date and place.
I have got as far as I can with Free BMD and have had zero luck with GRO

Hi and welcome to Rootschat, after a quick look on Ancestry, it looks like in 1891 she is using her middle name Ellen.

The family are in South Shields in 1881

As Carol suggested she is listed as Ellen.

In 1891 they are in Woolwich, Kent

OK probably not as she had moved away from Portsmouth by 1891. Marriage to Herbert Phillips (1899 Woolwich) looks a good call.
