Thing is Mary Jane Lee was such a common name in those days. It is a big mystery what happened to her, the last address I have for her is 84 Balfour Road, Portsmouth 1939

She could have died anywhere then

Also whoever registered the death may not have the correct details for her including her age

Researching:
Nothing much

Hi Brummiejan

Thanks for replying, I am still on a mission to find the DOD of Mary J. Lee born 1865. & as her last address was in Portsmouth in 1938 trying to find out if she stayed in Portsmouth during the 40's or got evacuated somewhere or just died

Hi Shell.
I don't think there are any online electoral register searches for this area.
Assuming this is the case, you can only search by address, and would need to visit the relevant archives to do so - or ask the staff to assist, which might incur a charge.
Also note there were no registers kept during WW2.
What sort of info are you trying to obtain?
