Death of Emily Peters (Harris) Phillips
« on: Tuesday 06 September 22 18:45 BST (UK) »
Hi, wondering if anyone can help find Emily after 1911 please.

Born Emily Peters Harris in Merthyr Tydfil district in September quarter 1844, mother Peters (vol 26 p397). Parents Henry Watkins Harris (1823-1896) and Esther Peters (1824-1906).

She married Benjamin Phillips in the parish church in Merthyr on 5 May 1863; they had 6 (known) children, Fanny Kate (1864-1950), Alice Emily (1865-1930), William Henry (1866-?), Mabel Gertrude (1867-1951), Winifred Jessie (1871-1953) and Charles Stanley (1873-1954).

The family were in Llanfrynach, Breconshire in 1891 (RG12/4571), and Benjamin died there in Jan-March quarter 1899.

In 1901 Emily was in Weston-super-Mare, listed as Emily Phillips, aged 56, widowed, living on her own means.

In 1911 she is still in Weston (45 Beach Rd), aged 66, widowed, apartments keeper, but seemingly as Emily Phillips Watton (no Watton marriage found). Her daughter Mabel Gertrude Phillips, a sick nurse, is with her.

Not yet found Emily or Gertrude in 1921, though you might imagine that Emily had died by then. In 1939 Mabel is in Paignton, Devon, living on her own means. She died in Totnes in 1951.

I would really like to find Emily in 1921, or a 2nd marriage, or her death, if anyone can help :).

Fantastic thanks Comberton, that must be her. So looks like she married again and was widowed again between 1901 and 1911, but Walton not Watton. Many thanks 😀

1921 census
If you just put in location Torquay and address  72 Abbey Road, you will find them.
A bit of difficulty with the transcribing by the look of it.
