I was looking on Google after I saw the posts and I read Ann's sister's death announcement as well. It still seems a real mystery how Ann's death isn't mentioned in any newspaper articles and how the 15 July 1966 date in on so many websites but it hasn't been confirmed

Ann Stephens
Ann Stephens (May 21, 1931 London-July 15, 1966 England) otherwise known as Anne Stephens or Stephens, Ann was a British actor.

She began her acting career on stage and later transitioned to film and television. Some of her notable film credits include "The Angel Who Pawned Her Harp" (1954) and "The Adventures of Robin Hood" (1955). Stephens also appeared in several television shows such as "The Benny Hill Show" and "The Adventures of Aggie." She was known for her talent as a singer and released several singles in the 1950s. Stephens tragically died in a car accident at the young age of 35 in 1966.

It looks like Helen Sledge (nee Stephens) married Ian Crackston sometime after the death of her first husband. Unfortunately he died last year as well. You can see a picture of the couple here:
