Shirley It should be registered as it became compulsary to do so at the beginning of 1875. If you've tried all internet sites it's possible that her registration wasn't sent to the General Records Office, which means a trawl through local records office to find her. I'm having a similar problem with one of my rellies. Joy

I guess it's possible that the one the Records Office found was this one. Deaths Jun 1907 JOHN Ann 44 Pembroke 11a 647 I see that the person above her in the GRO index has the same name and was also aged 44 ... perhaps the person who compiled the index somehow made a mistake with her age. NB: She wouldn't be on electoral rolls as women didn't get the vote until c1919

My ancester, Anne John, lived all her life in Sageston, Carew, Pembrokeshire. she never married, and in the 1901 census was aged 59. I have hit a brick wall with her as I can't find any record of her death. I have checked the records until she would have been 103 years old but still nothing. I have tried spelling her name as Ann or Annie but still nothing. I phoned the Pembrokeshire records office and they said that , according to the electorol rolls, she was still living in the house in 1906 but was not listed in 1907. The family said that she didn't marry and she didn't emigrate. Is is possible that her death wasn't registered? SRB
