Sibella Tolmie (Tolme) (c.1879-1912)

Sibella Tolme is buried with William Alexander, Sibella and Lilias Tolmie at the Northern Cemetery, Dunedin, all in the same plot. She is the daughter of Donald Allan and Isabella Tolme, and was a nurse. She was 33 when she died. Her last address was Andersons Bay, and I wonder if she lived there with her aunt and cousin.
