Why did Rosa die in Dudley, as per my earlier post;

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page
Deaths Dec 1923 (>99%)
VAILE Rosa M 77 Dudley 6b 932

I wonder if she was living with son Harold, an "engineer's apprentice" in 1901 ?
By then Dudley was a central hotbed of the Industrial Revolution and Black Country engineering. This was largely due to Dud Dudley's work in iron-ore smelting in the early 1700s, Dud was related to the great ironmaster Abraham Darby of Coalbrookdale fame.

Searching FreeBMD for all "Vailes" in "Dudley" gives both her children's marriages;

Cannot find any children.

LATER UPDATE FOLLOWING MIKE SHEPWAY'S SUBSEQUENT POSTS.

Clearly I've got the wrong marriage combination for Alice Maud Vaile, just to confirm she actually married William BURFORD and not Richard Buttery, despite what seemed a decent fit on "her" death record. Ah well..

Just realised no-ones yet posted Alice's birth record, altho the Census' all suggest 1880.
I cannot find a Baptism PR in this site's database, but GlosBMD has her born in 1879, as does FreeBMD;
