There were two Henry T Woolleys born around the same time and quite close to each other in Kent:
BIRTHS
Woolley, Henry Thomas q1 1865 N. Aylesford RD 2a 378; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Leaney
Woolley, Henry T q2 1866 Milton RD 2a 673; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Fagg
- location points to this second being the one who married Eliza.
DEATHS
Woolley, Henry T q1 1929 aged 62 Canterbury RD 2a 2034
and
Woolley, Henry T q1 1947 aged 82 Chatham RD 5b 546
the burial for this one was at St. Margaret's Church, Rainham, Kent, England on 13 Feb 1947.
The 1911 census shows the 'other' Henry was then living in Rainham as does the 1939 register.
In the 1939 register can only find one, and his birthdate is given as 17 Jan 1865 - both year and date months being a better fit with the other Henry.
Hence it seems doubly clear it was the other Henry who died in 1947 and presumably this one who died in 1929.
