There was someone of that name in the 1950 electoral register in Hammersmith: at 171 Guinness Buildings.

Also an Edith O Davis at 27 Daleham Gardens, Hampstead.

The one in Hammersmith was the only name listed at that address. There is a Hodson family also listed at the address in Hampstead

This is brilliant thank you so much Shaun the jigsaw is starting to slowly come together Edith later moved back to Gloucestershire but it was her time in London that's been a puzzle wondering where she was for those years

In 1929 she is with mother and brother at 19 Hillside, Neath. Still there in 1934 and 1935.
