Hello everyone,
I am trying to locate where my X3 grandmother, Esther Jutsum, may be buried. She was originally from Broadwoodkelly in Devon but moved to West Sussex with her husband to farm. She went to live with her daughter in her widowhood and resided in Newport on the Isle of Wight at the time of her death. She is not buried with her husband at their farm back in Sussex.
In widowhood she went to live with her daughter Harriet Ann (Passmore) Mathews and her husband Basil in Reigate where they lived at 1 Furzefield Crescent in 1911. Her death is registered at Newport in the Isle of Wight in Q3 1919. She died at 74 The Mall, Newport on 10 August 1919.
I would dearly love to find her gravestone so that I can tend to it as I doubt it has been visited in quite some time.
Her daughter and son in law moved around a lot as they were a missionary family. By 1921 after Esther's death they'd moved to Folkestone in Kent so nowhere nearby.
Any leads appreciated for likely graveyards worth looking at.

I found her on this excellent website!

If anyone knows about modern Carisbrooke numbering in relation to 1911 I would love to know which building Alexandra House and #74 are today - I think 74 must have always been in the ownership of the Wesleyans as there is a Wesleyan minister Rev George there in 1904.

It is the pale pink painted house and it looks as if it might be the original building.
