Could you possibly give us names (assuming they are no longer living) and a timescale?

Sorry I forgot the year and name !!!!
Uncles name was William Albert Jackson
His wife was Rose Jackson nee Harrison
Also the reason I am looking for them is Rose"s mother Alice Harrison nee Robinson who went to live with them. I would like to know when she died .
The year is a bit dodgy I would say deffinatly 50s-60 plus .
Thank you for your reply
