When was she last known to be alive - such as witness on a marriage cert etc?

Do you have access to either Findmypast or Ancestry to check the FULL BMD rather than using the ones on FreeBMD which finish in the mid 1920's

Have you searched the complete death index or just the name searchable transcribed index?

Can you narrow down the search at all? Was she still alive when any of her children got married had children etc.

She could have lived until the 1960's so if it was after about the late 1920's (which is when the transcribed index goes up to) then you have to look at every qtr. of every year in the complete index looking at every image.
