Her date of death is recorded as 1931 which indicates that she died 14 years old.

One of her sons @brian rayner was born in 1940.

Therefore this date must be incorrect.

can anyone supply the correct date?

Hi Alastair,
On website www.eggsa.org, there is a photo of her gravestone in Plettenberg Bay, Marine drive cemetery as:
RAYNER, Ella Edwards
29.10.1916 - 15.07.1997
"A wonderful woman of great strength, kindness and humour. Remembered with love and admiration"

Also, in Ancestry24, there are two Government Gazettes:

Hi Helen,

Fantastic.

Thanks for all the information which I have used to update her Geni profile. I also obtained the headstone information for her husband Ken.
