All of the following assumes she remained in England & didn't return to Ireland

No death under Murphy but you can rule out this marriage as she was Norah Augusta Murphy b 1920

Marriages Jun 1940   
Norah A Murphy/ Francis B Gardner    Plymouth    5b   951

There are 6 "Nora" deaths with her exact birthdate but none in Devon but as they are under a married name it may not be her

None of the surnames on the 6 entries check out to a maiden name Murphy.  There were 3 more deaths with her birthdate but with middle names - same - no marriage under Murphy

The updated information is that Nora Murphy was born circa 1904/1905 in Cork Ireland. She was in employment as a Doctors secretary at 10 Wellesley Road Chiswick London 1943/1944 and is showing as still there in electoral rolls until 1946. Householders surname at above address was Jacob. I am searching for possible marriage/death record. I cannot find her on 1939 register

Electoral rolls 1945/46 show her as Norah (not Nora).
