• Death Notes

  Lil Mercers notes read:
  Mrs Hopwood:
  Born 13/03/? Presume Ephrain's Mother
  Died May 22 or 23 or 24th May, 88yrs old
  
  I cant find a Mary Hopwood, who died aged 88.  Also, there is no Mary in Birkenhead in 1911, so maybe she died earlier.  She is not with any of her children in 1911, even though Arthur is still living in Birkenhead and single.
  
  There is a death in Birkenhead in 1904 which is a good match (although shoulkd be over 72 by then):
