i am trying to trace the death registration of elizabeth finnis
she is with her husband on the 1881 census london
her husband is james finnis
on the 1891 census hes living with his daughter & husband but no mention of elizabeth
i suspect she died sometime after 1881 & by 1891 she would have died in london she was born 1832
cant find a death on free bmd or family search
any info appreciated

What does the 1891 say for his marital status - married or widower?

1881 is this the right family?
