Alan has given Florence's husband's date of death by mistake:

Deaths Mar 1969 (>99%)
MOUNTCASTLE FRANK 65 STAMFORD 3B 166

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Assuming Stubbs was her maiden name, Freebmd doesn't show any Mountcastle/Stubbs births.

You may have to look for her siblings (if any) and their descendents.

added- freebmd only shows Florence K Stubbs/Mountcastle rather than also Florence K something else which would suggest a 2nd marriage

Was Stubbs Florence's maiden surname please?

Have you looked to see if Florence is in anyone's tree on here, and then attempted to make contact with them?

Have you looked to see if she had any children, on free bmd?

That is a much better way than waiting to see if someone many months or years from now might read your post.

Florence Kate Stubbs b 1904 married a Frank Mountcastle b 1904 on the 24th December 1942 in Spridlington. Florence died aged 65 on 2nd March 1969 at Stamford and Rutland Hospital.Would be grateful if any descendant of Florence could get in touch with me to see if they have a photograph of Frank and Florence's wedding.1904.
I am married to Franks daughter (Cynthia Joan Ross nee Mountcastle) by his first marriage.
