Can anyone help me to track down the death of Eliza Perkins who was married to Humphrey Elias Perkins. They were staying at 19 Grange Road with their family at the time of the 1881 census. She died in the following 10 years as she is not on the 1891 census when they stayed at 23 Boulton Road West Ham. Her youngest son Arthur was 8 years in 1891.
Would really appreciate any help you can give me.
Cheers,
Forbes

I cannot find any Eliza Perkins death between 1883-1891. there is one registered in 1892 in the first qtr of that year. The 1891 census was taken on the 5th april 1891. She could have died just before the census but that still leaves a gap of 8 months before registering the death. I know that you had to register it within a certain time span otherwise you were fined. Anyway here are the details of the death in 1892
NAME. ELIZA PERKINS. AGE 59.
DATE OF REG. JAN/FEB/MAR. 1892
DISTRICT WEST HAM.
VOL. 4A.
PAGE. 20

She may not have died at that time; she may simply have left.
