Death of Annie Keen, formerly Brown, nee Johnston, 1932

After George’s death in 1945, Eliza remarried to Albert Collonson (unconfirmed). Arthur was second son.

Sadly George and Arthur died within a couple of days of each other

Manchester Evening News, 18 April 1945
On 17th Inst., in hospital, ARTHUR, beloved son of Eliza BROWN and the late George Harry, age 20. At rest. Service Christ Church, ? p.m. Interment Weaste Cemetery, 3 p.m. to-morrow (Thursday).—2, Windsor Terrace, Salford 5. Inq. Pendleton Co-op.

I only have the transcript from BNA, which is OCR generated, best I can do.

Extremely sad.
From deceased online free index, both George and Arthur were buried 19 April at Weaste. Probably together, there is one other in the grave.

So, if it is confirmed that Annie died in the Salford area, Weaste is certainly one place to look for a burial.

Thanks again, everyone. You are great. I don't find Weaste Cemetery on findagrave, and of the ones on findagrave, I don't find any of these Browns. However, the cemeteries are from 6% to 25% photographed so they might be in one of them.
As for Weaste, I googled it and there is an email address to send enquiries, so will try that. Good to have a "target" cemetery and maybe they have mother Annie there.

I see on another tree online that John Edward Brown married Frances Thornhill in 1941 in Salford - don't have exact date. And that he died 1965.
