 I wish to add to the question.... Can anyone tell me who was the landlord or Publican at the Coopers arms in the 1930's ?

Have you got a newspaper report about her death? 

As Carole says the 1939 register should have her husbands information.

Hi,

Her husband was Samuel Richards.

What I don't know is how she came to die in the Coopers Arms in Carmarthen in 1938. She is buried with her husband who died in 1942.
He held licences elsewhere but I don't know whether that was why she died there.
Newspaper Archives for after 1919 in Wales  are on microfilm  in  archives which are in lockdown.
I'm stumped MIllie
regards
mlr

Have you got the death certificate for her?

Where did she normally live if the death place is a surprise and where did her husband die?

Right thanks, would love to help solve the mystery for you.

Perhaps she was visiting friends or relatives at the time.
