She died aged 81 at Warneford Asylum Oxford and was buried 26 May 1922 at Holy Trinity Church, Headington Quarry. The only record found between these dates is as a visitor in the household of Annie Barker (independent) at Bath; her birthplace is here given as Blaenavon. This fits so well that I think we can dismiss her being a widow.<br />It may be mere coincidence but the Managing Director of Blaenavon Ironworks at the time of her birth was James Ashwell from Notts. <br />Chris Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180178794366214284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992381256386825587.post-20731495568362817782013-11-09T07:30:28.507+00:002013-11-09T07:30:28.507+00:00Ellen Mary Crump was the daughter not the widow of...Ellen Mary Crump was the daughter not the widow of a solicitor. She was born 13 October 1860 and baptised 31 January at St John the Baptist Kentish Town the daughter of William Alexander (solicitor's clerk) and Sarah Maria Crump. She is found with her family in 1851, 1861, 1871 and 1881; on the latter date William is a widower and the address is Rugby House, Primrose Hill Road, Hampstead. He is found there (without Ellen) in 1891 and 1901; he died there 21 December 1905. Probate was granted to Ellen's brother, Sir William John Crump, who was the first Mayor of Islington. <br />Chris Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180178794366214284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992381256386825587.post-23969766575959169622013-11-09T07:29:14.682+00:002013-11-09T07:29:14.682+00:00Ellen Annette Eliza Bertlin was born 25 July and b...Ellen Annette Eliza Bertlin was born 25 July and baptized 26 August 1863 at Hampstead St. Saviour, daughter of Anthony (gentleman) and Eliza Ann Bertlin, 20 Park Road, Haverstock Hill. Her father was born in Sicily and was a naturalized British subject (census). She died 22 February 1919 at Nightingale Nursing Home Derby Effects £4414 10s 6d. There are pictures of the building on the net. She was living at Hampstead with her parents in 1881 and her mother in 1901. In 1911 she is with Adeline N. Snell at 90 Harvard Court NW. Relationship unclear as she is shown as "co-head." It seems her stay with the Rumballs was brief and that she was well enough to live with family; there is no indication that the nursing home where she died was a mental care facility.<br />Chris Reynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03180178794366214284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7992381256386825587.post-60349036671907373142013-11-09T07:25:31.356+00:002013-11-09T07:25:31.356+00:00Anthony has sent the following possible identifica...Anthony has sent the following possible identifications of the missing patients - which I will add to the file on the main page when I have time.
