I did find this marriage but cannot find Morwenna Mitchell prior to 1922 or a death for her. I can't link Morwenna Hawker/Newman to the surname Mitchell.

The other sisters are traced - Juliot became a nun and Rosalind married and had a daughter.

The google search that throws up Lanoe Falconer is wrong! Mary Hawker, a writer who never married, used that pseudonym. She has no known connection to the other Hawker family. Mary/Lanoe did die in 1908.

Nothing,I find nothing.

I tried checking passenger lists on Find My Past but it is refusing to go to the page.
Maybe it will go there tomorrow,but I have sent them a message as well to get it sorted out for me.

Can anyone help solve this puzzle for a friend of mine! Morwenna Pauline Hawker was born in Morwentstow Cornwall in 1865. She was one of the three daughters of Rev Robert Stephen Hawker's 2nd marriage. She married Charles Solomon Newman, a wealthy Jewish man, in Lewisham in 1889.
They are living at 2 Manchester St, Brighton with her mother and sisters in 1891. No trace can be found after that. Charles Newman died in a fire in Kensington in 1899 - Morwenna is not mentioned in his obituary.
Have tried all the usual records ( I think )! Any ideas?
