Anna Hague -- COMPLETED, thanks!
« on: Tuesday 12 December 23 17:28 GMT (UK) »
William Hague was an architect particularly well known for designing churches.
After his death in 1899 his widow Anne Frances (or Anna Frances, née Daly, born 1851) carried on the practice with a colleague, Thomas McNamara.

Update:
I've just been told that the Dictionary of Irish Architects has fairly recently added the information that she died in London on 17 Feb. 1934, as announced in the Irish Times a few days later.
No sign of burial or probate, but one can't win 'em all.

Irish Newspapers Archive doesn’t have the Irish Times, can’t find her in any of the others.

Thanks for looking.  I finally found it on FindmyPast, but only after a struggle:
their indexing leaves something to be desired.
