R.I.P.

Mary Ann Burrell (1857 – 9 March 1937)

Mary was the daughter of Henry and Emma (née Moore) and sister of Walter.   Henry Burrell was a printer and she grew up at The Pitt Press, Trumpington Street (1861) and then Silver Street (1871). At least three of her brothers also worked as printers. In 1881 Mary was still living at home, but no record of her has been found on the 1891, 1901 or 1911 census records. From at least 1931 onwards she lived at 31 King Street possibly with her brother Alfred and died at home aged 79 years old.
