My "brick wall" is Mary Jane Hooper born 30th May 1889 Brixham, Devon to William Skerrett Hooper & Susan Ann Nowell Hamling. In the 1911 Census she is single, a servant, living in the Rising Sun P.H. in Brixham. I cannot find a marriage or death from then on. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

The following is a complete conjecture! The only drawback is date of birth on 1939 Register for this Mary J.which is 15.06.1889. and not 30.05.1889. A Mary J Hooper married William H Moore, March Q 1922 Totnes. In 1911, William H Moore lived at 4 The Quay Brixham, a few schedules away from the Rising Sun. Lived with his wife Amelia who dies June Q 1921, Totnes aged 51. William H Moore of 4 The Quay dies 17.08.1930. leaves £1313 1s 1d to Mary, his wife. In 1939 Mary J Moore living Homelands, Lower Manor, Brixham a Landlady. Mary J Moore dies June Q 1966 Totnes, aged 76. As I say this is probably completely wrong but just a thought. Sally
