____________________
No Taylor births found with a Tunnard mother’s maiden name from 1918 to 1938.
____________________
In 1939 my surmise that Dorothy married a son of the above house is confirmed by the presence of Ethel Frances, very likely the sister of her husband, in her married residence at Hawthorns Churchfields Avenue, Weybridge, Surrey:

Will notes for Dorothy Evelyn Tunnard
Her probate index:
1973
TAYLOR, Dorothy Evelyn, of Lovely Cottage 171 Woodham La New Hae Weybridge Sy died 25 April 1973 Probate Winchester 23 August £12022 733306590K
Ordered as she was the last of her line from Powys and she may have left a bit to some distant relatives.
____________________
In her will dated 17th Dec 1968 she appointed as executors her solicitors Messrs Guillaume & sons, her husband Clement Bramley, Taylor and Patricia Mary Higgins. Her husband did not serve as her executor.
She also listed:
1. Mrs Gladys Louise Elliott
2. Mrs Mary Barter,
3. Mrs Eleanor Mary Banks
and the residue of her estate after her husband’s death was to go to the survivors of:
1. Mrs Patricia mary Higgins,
2. Her godson Captain John Devereux Treacher RN
3. Barbara Mary Greenhalgh
I cannot see that any of these were relatives. So no action.
