----------------------------
Wilmot Craze of Brea died aged 73 years (burial record). The informant on Wilmot's death was incorrect, her age in the Censuses being a truer reflection (25 in 1841, 35 in 1851, 45 in 1861, 57 in 1871, 66 in 1881). Wilmot gave her age as 50 when she married her third husband, George Crase, in 1864; she was closer to 81 when she died.
