Sarah Bailey - update

Press reports show that Sarah Bailey died on the 4th of January 1939 after a fall at Alf's home. Although the second report from the Portsmouth Evening News states Alf's surname as Shersby, I am certain that he never changed his name to that of his step-father.

Thomas Shersby, Sarah's second husband, died eight years before Sarah aged 81.
