louisa kettle

[rastajill]

Trying to locate just who my grandmother was, always believed her name to be Charlotte Louisa Davies, raised in Chester England.  Married Ralph kettle in 1920 in Congleton Cheshire, she was his second wife, the marrage cert does not name her parents but names her as Louisa Davies.  I know she died sometime between 1964 and 1970 in congleton although it could have been registered as Macclesfield.  Have found a death record for 1977 but that is definatley not her as I was still at junior school, when she died, and 1977 would make me 20 at time of death.  Have spent hours seaching records and have been in contact with church where she is buried yet they have all records for that period been transcribed at moment so very difficult to get answers there.
Have looked under every Charlotte Louisa Kettle, every Louisa Kettle and every Charlotte Kettle but nothing.
Really don,t know where to go next with this one, problem being there was a big rift in her family just before she married my grandfather probably due to the fact she was already pregnant with my mum before marrage and his first wife had only being dead two months when he married my granny, so there is nobody I can ask about this.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

Thankyou so much for taking the time to search for me I think I,d spent so long going round in circles that I couldn,t see past the fact that she had to be out there somewhere.
I am going to contact cheshire records again to see if the death date has been recorded wrong as I know she didn,t die in 1977 as I would have been 20 in that year and I remember my mother purchasing long black socks for me to wear at the funeral, and at 20 I just wouldn,t be wearing socks
Everything else would make this a very good candidate for it to be her, and I have encounterred two other records from Cheshire that had been dated wrong.  The problem I have had is down to the fact that she was a very difficult women who never spoke to anyone of her family prior to marring my grandfather, apart than to say she had an uncle on her mothers side who was a very well known stained glass artists, so this will be interesting if it proves to be true.
once again thankyou

Not quite sure whats going on here but I can,t find the record on 1891 census you refer to, can find no Frank, Charlotte Louisa, or Elizabeth all living together, will keep trying

On Ancestry they have been transcribed as TOWERS in 1891:
