She was a member of the Exclusive Brethren, a small offshoot of the Plymouth Brethren, which discouraged contact with non-members and so my family didn't know her very well.

Found a possible death Jan - Mar 1943 Southport, age 73, thanks to ancestry's new death index.

Edit - yes, this is her as there is an entry in the National Probate Calendar 1943: RIMMER Emily of 97 Leyland-road Southport Lancashire widow died 17 February 1943 Probate Liverpool 31 May to Alice Maud Mary Griffiths (wife of Albert Horace Griffiths) and the said Albert Horace Griffiths accountant.

Emily Rimmer (nee Galway) was a member of the Plymouth Brethren in Southport. She is buried at the Liverpool Road Cemetery in Birkdale. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/224596332/emily-rimmer

She married James Rimmer in 1891 in Southport (registered Ormskirk)

I hope this helps!

She had two children, Norman Claude Rimmer (1892- 1939) and Alice Maud Mary Rimmer (1894-1990) who married Albert Horace Griffiths- he was also a member of the Plymouth Brethren, and has many descendants.

They were actually members of the Exclusive Brethren, not just the Plymouth Brethren, as I said in my original post. I already know about their children, thanks. And thanks for the info about the burial. Are you a relative?

[Turnpike10]

No, I'm not related, but a local history researcher. There are many brethren buried in Southport. Her husband, James Rimmer is buried in the Duke Street cemetery. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/199097301/james-rimmer
