Red face Louisa Bertha Embell

My sisters' mother was called Louisa Bertha Embell; she married? circa1920,

It was her second marriage, and her new name was Plummer. She died in

Greenwich, London in 1926. We can find no information on this lady whose

maiden name was Jones. Are there any relatives out there? WE would be so

grateful for any information.

I can see a Bertha Louisa Jones marrying a Henry John Enbel in 1907, Wandsworth.

This Bertha may have been born in 1889 in Wandsworth. Does that sould like the right person? I can't see her in 1911, do you have that?

Welcome to the forum btw!!

There are two entries in the death register for Louisa:

Deaths Sep 1927

Eubell Louisa B 37 Greenwich 1d 738

This most likely means she wasn't legally married to Mr Plummer, but was using his name. Explains why I couldn't find her second marriage!

I see there are two children born in Greenwich in 1923 and 1924 surname Pummer and mmn Jones. Is the girl (1923) your (half/step?) sister who you mentioned in your opening post? Obviously almost any name combined with Jones may turn up some red herrings!

There is a Henry John Eubel at 59 Sneinton Rd, Nottingham (Salvation Army Home), on the 1911 census, age 23, born Middlesex Pimlico, a sorter for the Salvation Army Waste Paper Depot. It says he is single but maybe he is the one who married Bertha Louisa and they separated?
