Hello Hugo, Rhuddlan and Meleri,
Thank you for the information and suggestions. I will pursue the Colwyn Bay crematorium possibility.
The transfer of License of the North Western Hotel was to my gt grandfather, Albert Abraham Kerridge. They were supposed to have had The Station Hotel in Blaenau Ffestiniog at one time. My mother said that they worked for Inde Coop and worked all over North Wales with them. Later on they had their own places, The Crossings in Llandudno Junction was one of them. That was said to be an open house, it never closed, day or night. According to my mother, the local Police entered and exited by the back door whenever they chose.
Both Albert Abraham Kerridge and his wife, Amelia, learned to speak Welsh fluently. They needed to be able to chat in Welsh for their businesses to survive.
Meleri, the E E Kerridge you found sailing to NZ on the Ruapehu is the lady that disappeared without trace so far. There is no marriage for her in NZ that has ben traced to date. My cousin over there, one of her direct descendants, has spent hours in the archives and more as he lives in Wellington too. She is on an electoral roll in Marjoribanks St, Wellington in 1908. That is the last we can find for her. He has spent at least 17 years looking for her without success. He has searched the ships leaving NZ for many destinations, there was no trace of her in these. It is possible she changed her name and didn't marry, the same as her mother.
Someone recommended searching the NZ deaths for people with the name Edith, or Edith Ethel, who were born c1881. I did make a start but no luck at the moment. There is one thing that is certain, she will have died by now.
Helig.
