mgnv, thank you. I should have worked it out myself, I wasn't thinking straight.

Well the plot thickens! After a conversation with my mother (memory not always the best) today it transpires that Mabels husband might have been Edwin not Edward so I am wondering if the Robert Edwin Seymour is in fact her husband. She herself was named Gertrude but always called Mabel. Why oh why didn't they use their birth names!! I think this avenue definitely needs further investigation although as Robert Edwin was born in India and I don't have worldwide Ancestry I may need some help please.
I would be grateful for any help, thank you.

By the way 603 Antrim road where Mabel died is a nursing home.

Someone has a tree on ancestry with the Seymour family on it. They have Robert Edwin down as Edwin born India and died in Belfast. It all tally with the 1911 census. I think Margaret is Mable's motherinlaw and Robert Edwin is Mables husband.
