Possible death? Although year of birth is a bit out....perhaps the informant didn't know when she was born

Name: Rosa M Tunmore
Birth Date: abt 1871
Date of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec 1955
Age at Death: 84
Registration district: Hartismere
Inferred County: Suffolk
Volume: 4b
Page: 740

EDIT

MC's death looks more likely though the death was in Norfolk not Suffolk

Hello MarieCeleste,
Yes I do have the birth registration and the death, but not where she was or went when she died in 1972 - it's the middle bit of her life that's missing and I guess that she wanted to remain anonymous until the end, and , if so, I will let her go gracefully.
Thanks again
Jayne :-)

Looks like Mrs Cunnington's death - wonder if May/Rosa was still with her?

England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2005

Name: Ellen Cunnington
Birth Date: abt 1850
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1940
Age at Death: 90
Registration district: Norwich
Inferred County: Norfolk
Volume: 4b
Page: 659

She left £91 14s 8d - probate to Joseph Leonard Palmer, wholesale provision merchant. So May didn't get a whopping inheritance there, then!

Jayne - you could always order May/Rosa's death certificate to see who the informant was.

OMG Marie-Celeste! Thank you so much for your last posting - Brilliant!
At last we find confirmation that she was actually a companion - and great to know that she managed to find her own home in her latter years. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! You have given the information to help me search further and at least be in the right direction - brilliant!!!
Wishing you a very, very happy Christmas and also to all at GR!
