Mary Jane Cook b 1858 Frampton Cotterell Glos. She married George Cook b1849 also in Frampton He died 1925 .Sometime between 1901 and 1911 they seperated and she moved to South Wales. I can find her on the 1911 census living in 57 Myler Tce Thomas Town,Tonyrefail,in the census district of Pontypridd Glamorgan. she is listed as head of the household and residing with her are her daughter and son in law and two boarders. I would like to trace her place and date of death,this would help close a void in my investigation. Your time and effort is much appreciated.
Thanks John.

Herbert and Justina had a son in 1912 - Cedric - it may be worth you looking at this 1921 result

First name(s) Last name Birth year Birth place Parish Registration district County
Cedric Pullen 1912 — Llantrisant Pontypridd Glamorganshire


1921 Census Of England & Wales transcript

Cedric, William H, Justina and 4 others are on this record

EDIT - I see ErikaH has already posted that, although there appear to be only 6 names in total whereas the search result gives the impression there should be 7 names.
Correct that - I hadn't seen the name Novella, so there are 7 names.

7 names - 6 Willeys and 1 Pullen
