LMA has brilliant records for Lambeth Workhouse. I'm not sure how much is actually online, but the Creed Registers should be. With luck there will also be a rough settlement examination, giving the grounds for her admission. The workhouse records may also show whether she was buried by the workhouse, or by friends.

Thanks for your reply. Ancestry has a significant number of workhouse records from Lambeth, but as far as I can tell - no index. There's also more than one workhouse in Lambeth and I can't say I'm completely clear which one to look at.

The address given on the death certficate was 10 Burnett Street but the workhouses were on Princes Street and Renfrew Street with the Infirmary on Brook Street, so I'm a bit puzzled.
