Eliza Annie WOOD of Guernsey

so annie eliza appears in camberwell london in 1921 on the census with elizabeth hickman also a guersey born woman married to a lad from cornwall so elizabeth's maiden name/pre marriage connection to annie Eliza is unknown but elizabeth & her husband john are some 12 years older than annie eliza at both 58 respectively

If the Hickmans had any children in 1921 look their births up on freebmd & if they were born from mid-1911 onwards it will give Elizabeths maiden name

There may be no family connection - Annie Eliza may have been a live in servant

Does the 1921 entry show her as Annie Eliza or as Eliza Annie?

Hi 1921 census has her as Annie Eliza wood,ni daughter of the hickmans with them on the 1921 census,so maybe passed on or living in a school somewhere outside of Camberwell,in 1911 Annie Eliza had been a companion live in to a older woman in st Peter's port,more like a nurse aid then servant per day,looking after the older woman's physical health etc,she seems to have remained a spinister,hard to say if Annie Eliza came to nz to visit her four brothers or move here,but she was in regular contact with her brother John ,my x2 great grandfather by letters etc so anything is possible

update* so after alot of digging & i mean alot of digging, thanks in part to a friend of mine shirley based in england, we collectively found annie eliza wood died in 1968 in Guernsey aged 93 she doesn't come up on find a grave but is buried in COE cemetery st johns in guernsey with younger sister & parents, her name was hidden on the headstone due to the sheer volume of overgrowth but shirley had a guernsey based friend finding annie eliza buried in st johns cemetery with her parents & sister, overwhelming relief to finally have closure on what happened to her

Finding out what happened to Annie Eliza wood my x2 great grandfather's older sister has given me solace & broken down one of my longest standing brick walls,it's not often that many of us break down a tricky brick wall,her grave is on findagrave but her was hidden by the overgrowth so doesn't show on findagrave but does in photos taken from within the cemetery of her family headstone,it's a good feeling to finally know what happened to Annie Eliza even if there are blanks in her life story it is solace to have closure
