matilda mary kate richards is the mother to my gran her daughter eileen matilda clara lilian lenden and her maiden name is Johns. All i know is matilda had three children two girls one boy. she died young due to having cancer but it was the anestetic that killed her. her husband george willam johns died during the war on ship and that was who she was married to. my gran her daugher was married to my granddad called john william lenden.
if you have anymore in formation on matilda for example if she worked or not. i do no she was spiritual and a gypsie, as my gran has told us all a few stories years ago before she died, that she used to read peoples fortunes and tealeaf readings. i also believe matildias own mother was spiritual aswell, as i am too.
