Where did Maria die?

I can't see a death for the name in 1921 which would fit with a birth in 1847

Hi, Ian -
do you know if they did have children? If so, what were their names/YOB's?

Have you found Maria & Samuel in any censuses after marriage? I don't see them so far.

Their marriage, for our reference:
