Research Notes
Date of birth was taken from death registration. Day and moth were confirmed by 1939 England Register which transcribed the year as 1887 instead of 1881.
Birth registration shows her surname was Mayoh and not Maysh as originally stated above. The birth registration of daughter Kathleen was a typo.
There were no further births registered either for Mayoh or Maysh.
