I wrote to the funeral directors last month and they agreed to pass a letter on which I also sent. No reply from the family yet sadly.

Still having trouble finding her death and also anything on the George T S Richardson who may have married Elizabeth Ellen Field.

George Thomas Steele Richardson's army records are on RecordSearch - not much extra info but it does have his birthplace/date.

I didn't put the details on as judging by his birthdate he may well still be alive.

Albeit Slighty????  :) 
However I merely  tied the two threads  together  to help researchers. 

However  the  thread does  give a possibility for  the death of Emma, even if the age is out slightly.  The information on  the death certificate is only as good as the informants knowledge of the deceased.  If  family folklore is true and she was in a home looked after by nuns  they may not have known her age etc. 

the  only  way  to know whether or not it is her would be to obtain  the death certificate.
