I should add that in 1881 Ann's daughter Ada is listed as a patient at the hospital in Birkdale, so it could be that Ann was at the hospital on census night and ended up not being listed either there or at home.

Thanks, Marg. I've been looking at the St Cuthbert's, North Meols burials on the Lancashire Online Parish Clerks site to try to figure out which one might be her, but neither of them was buried there!

Are you sure that daughter Ada was in hospital on census night in 1881? Just found this in Wales.

Ooooh, clever! Why did I never think of looking in Wales?! Thanks very much, Marg, that is definitely them because of the occupation - shopkeeper's wife. Now I wonder what they were doing there?!

Yes, there are millions of Rimmers in the Southport area, that's where all the Rimmers come from. I'd always assumed it was my Ada because she wasn't at home!

Found a burial for the 1898 Ann on Lancs OPC - 25 Feb 1898 at St Peter & St Paul, Ormskirk, Ann Rimmer age 62, abode Birkdale.

And a National Probate Calendar entry for an Ann who died in the Oct-Dec quarter of 1899, entry is from 1902:
RIMMER Ann of "Scarisbrick" New-road Southport Lancashire (wife of James Rimmer) died 26 December 1899 Administration Liverpool 21 November to the said James Rimmer gentleman. Effects £455.

I think the address is slightly messed up there as my James Rimmer is at 28 Scarisbrick New Road on the 1901 census. So this must be her, as the other Ann Rimmer who died in that quarter (age 86) has abode Shellfield Road on the Lancs OPC burial entry.
