Looks like Mary Dewing, on the 1911 census as d-i-l was married to John Thomas, this is the christening of one of their children shown on the census:

Caroline Phyllis Dewing
Record Type: Baptism
Baptism Date: 5 Jul 1905
Father's Name: John Thomas Dewing
Mother's Name: Mary Ann Dewing
Parish or Poor Law Union: Deptford St John
Borough: Lewisham
Register Type: Parish Registers

My confusion about the death I posted was the place - Maidstone.

Yes Patchem, I wondered about that - everything else appears to have been registered in Greenwich. Elizabeth may not have been one of the children who died though, that's why I was trying to trace the grandparents to see if the missing children were with them - although I can't see her on later census but I haven't traced the maternal grandparents with any certainty.

Priscilla's family in 1891, but no sign of grandchildren

Hi Susan,

Something for you to research in the winter months I think! You may be new to this but I'm sure if you concentrate on one familly member at a time you'll get there! It's never an overnight thing.

Good luck with your research, and don't forget to come back here if you get stuck - I've had loads of help from these guys in finding my ancestry. They find the impossible at times, for which I'm eternally grateful!

OH well spotted LondonBelle, I hadn't found any of their christenings, despite searching A* on just parents.

Think she may be one of the dead ones though:
