She was buried at Islington Cemetery in East Finchley on 19 Jan 1925. The burial register should give her place of residence. A few credits at DeceasedOnline to view the image will cost less than the death certificate (though it won't give you the cause of death).

Hi,

It looks like Barnet Workhouse had a hospital attached to it so that could be why she was there,

there might be a patient record available.

I would contact them to see what is available.

Regards,
Daisy
