Thanks for looking but no not her.

I only checked her death today and I think that must be her with the age and being in Docking. I thought she'd died between 1861 and 1871 because she had a son William living with her and he ends up in the workhouse 1871 and he is labelled lunatic from birth poor soul. http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin...26pgPLz0q3dpid

Her husband William died in 1857.

So I had assumed that because the son William was in the workhouse in 1871 Mary had certainly died because it looks like she'd looked after him most of his life. I hadn't looked for death recently since the deaths had been transcribed to be honest until today.

So either it's not her death or she is around somewhere in 1871 and probably died just before the 1881 census. Looks like William the son got to much to look after it looks like he never worked and collected parish funds before he is labelled idiot on the 1851 and on the 1861 his rank/profession is Almsman (idiot)!
