Notes for Amy Maria Powys Bode
In Q3 of 1873 and Amy Maria P Bode married in Kensington district either a Joseph Henry Howlett or a William Hunter B Little. Without the certificate, I do not know which is her husband.  She was not to be found under either name in the 1881 or 1891 censuses.

No sign of them in 1911, so they must have been abroad again.

This looks very much like a son of theirs:

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Births Jun 1880
LITTLE Cecil Hunter Kensington 1a 62

He was found by searching FreeBMD for all Little births in the Kensington district from Q1 of 1875 to Q4 of 1880.  And the entry was confirmed from the 1881 census on FindMyPast.

Very likely her death in 1926 as she had been living near Winchester in 1901:

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page
Deaths Sep 1926
Little Amy P 72 Winchester 2c 131

But the odd thing is the possible entry of her husband’s death in the previous quarter, but in the Bath district.
