Good evening Peter, nice to see you're still keeping busy.

I'm afraid I can't remember if you use any of the subscription FH sites, so just in case you haven't looked I can confirm that Ancestry's free search page only seems to find one Nesta Fryer born abt that time, and that she indeed appears to be the Nesta BM Fryer you've already found born W-o-S in 1913. The site shows a Nesta Mary B Fryer passed away in "Gloucestershire" in 2006 (paidup members could find out where in the county)#. This suggests she was not married so maybe left no children ?.
The site also has Electoral records of a "Nesta Fryer" residing in Warwickshire in 1935, 1939, 1945 and 1955.
Also these Travel Records which may be the same lady ?;
Name: Brookes Nesta Mary Fryer
Birth: abt 1913
Departure: Buenos Aires, Argentina
Arrival: 25 Aug 1952 - London, England.

Name: Nesta Fryer
Departure: 25 Jul 1959 - Southampton, England
Destination: New York, USA


So, sadly not a lot of help to you except to confirm, I think, that the record you've found is most probably "your" Nesta, especially given her unusual name.

I would suggest an open letter to the Forest newspapers could quite possibly find someone who knows of "your" Nesta.

Good luck, Jeff.

# While I was writing this post I see MPG has also posted and confirms this death was in Gloucester, thanks for that.
