I am reseaching my grandmother Mrs Lucy Wilkins maiden name Marshall this lady was born in Wath - on - Dearne Yorkshire on 9th March 1878, she later married Arthur Wilkins a Sergeant in the Royal Artillery in Scarborough on 24th October 1901 she had four sister and three brothers. I am trying to find out when she actually died I think it was in the late 1940's or the early 1950's. There is no trace of her in the death records that I can find. She had two children my late father Arthur Harold Wilkins (d.1948) and a daughter my late aunt Kathleen Wilkins (d.1957) who later became Gledhill. Can anybody help. Thank you.
