You could try asking Buckingham Palace if they can point you in the right direction...Bound to have records of members of the Royal Households somewhere in their archives and Buck House has a policy of answering all letters

You could try census, to see if she was there for any length of time.

when was she likely to have been there?

Sandringham has only been a royal house since about 1862....so it might be possible to check census
