Last seen on a public record I can access as the Amdinistrator of her sister Ella’s estate in 1951.  Though she may be mentioned in her husband’s will.

FindMyPast, in their limited Worl records, shows 46 deaths of people with the two forenames of Lilian Louisa and born in the year 1900 and any surname.  This is no use for identifying her death!

No second marriage and no sign of any death record.  Could she really have lived to 2005?

No plausible probate entry under Mawle, or Griffin, from 1996 to 2016.

Eventually her death was found in Scotland in 1977:

Surname Forename Age at death Year Ref       RD Name
MAWLE   LILIAN LOUISA   77   1977   738/ 926  George Square district, Edinburgh, Scotland

She had probably gone to live with her daughter Josephine after her husband died in 1971.

Her grandchildren have compared notes and reckon she was laid to rest at Warriston Crematorium in Edinburgh.
