Details of will / administration of their estate - if applicable
Memorial inscription - if any
Footnote for help needed:
I was in touch with a family member about 5 years ago who said that after her 1st husband's death in WWI that Olive remarried and moved to Australia or New Zealand. This marriage produced twin sons. I would love to find out more information about this if possible. 2nd husbands name is not known although she thinks it was possibly Palmer. Olive wasn't well liked by her mother in law so I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't hang around - but both her children (born 1913 and 1914) remained in the UK so at a guess her moving would have been after they had grown as the relative didn't know of them being brought up by someone else. Olive married less than three weeks after her 16th birthday and had her children aged 17/18 and was widowed by 20 so there is time there for her to remarry and move once they had grown.
Apologies for rambling but I had completely forgotten this little mystery that I have never been able to solve
