It said on the certificate widow of George a docker.
Tried one in 1924 Brighton as well. And this one was a widow of Noah another docker.

I think I will have to get hold of the full copy of the 1921 census and see if that yields any further clues. As I think her age has been entered a few years out on the death certificate.

So got 1921 census and she is living with them in 12 Rifle Street Eltham, which was part of a camp set up to house munitions workers. None of them are working but Selina's husband Ernest is in the army. I'll have to keep digging I think. Thanks for all the help.

Age 74

jonw65, that could be a very good shout. Selina (daughter) was at Elson, Gosport in 1923, 2.1 miles away from Alverstoke.

Seemingly no aged Elizabeth Prior's in Alverstoke in 1921 census.

Thanks worth a look for sure.

Just got the certificate it's her. My great grandfather must of come over from Ireland as he's the informant. I should have known he'd get the age wrong as, he got his daughter's age wrong on her death certificate too.

Thanks everybody. I don't think I would have solved this with out your help.
