Notes about Violet Maud KINGSLEY

1901 aged 2, living at Pound Farm, St Ippollitts with parents, Richard and Julia Kingsley, step uncle William Kingsley, and four siblings. 1937 From Newspaper cutting: "DIED AFTER CHURCH SERVICE Christmas Day Tragedy at St Ippolyts The death occurred on Christmas Day with tragic suddenness of Miss Violet Maud Kingsley, of Townsend Place, St Ippolyts. Miss Kingsley was attending the morning service at St Ippolyts Parish Church with her cousin Mrs Cooper, with whom she had lived for ten years when she collapsed just as the vicar announced the processional hymn. She was carried to the porch where efforts were made to revive her and finally she was taken to Hitchin Hospital, but she died before reaching there. A post mortem examination revealed heart trouble and the Hitchin coroner (Mr F R Shillitoe) decided an inquest was not necessary. Miss Kingsley was the youngest daughter of the late Mr Richard Kingsley of Pound Farm, St Ippolyts, who died in a similar maner exactly twenty four years ago. Miss Kingsley's body was cremated at Golders Green on Thursday, and the remains placed in the family grave at St Ippolyts. Miss Kingsley who was 38 years of age had been employed at the Spirella Factory, Letchworth for many years. She leaves two sisters Miss Elizabeth Kingsley and Mrs Dorothy Dickerson (who lives in Canada) and two brothers Messrs Herbert and Frank Kingsley."
