Looking for more info on Cora Brill who married the son of Charles Bromley (1829-1918). Her husband was Charles H. Bromley (1862-1940), as listed below and I've included more info about his parentage. Would like to find out where/when she died and her parentage if possible.
Charles Bromley, b. 18 Aug 1829 in Goldenhill, Staffordshire, EN, died 22 Oct 1918 in Pontiac, Livingston, IL of apoplexy. He was the son of Samuel Bromley and Mary Hannah Cooper. (I'm not sure where I came up with that, but I think my cousin got that off his Charles' death certificate, which information came from son George Ellsworth Bromley).
Charles married Mary Gibson between April-Jun 1854 in Staffordshire Co., EN (per English Civil Marriage Index on Ancestry.com but not verified by parish, etc. My great aunt Mary Ellen White was the one who wrote me that Mary Gibson was my great grandmother's name. Mary Ellen is now passed away.) Mary Gibson was born 14 Aug 1831 in Congleton, Cheshire, EN and died 3 May 1913 in East St. Louis, St. Clair, Illinois. (These dates came in a letter to me from great aunt Mary Ellen White).

(Mary Ellen did not have a death date for George so I got the death date from ??. She simply said he died and was buried in Pontiac.) I also have an alternate birthdate of May 1867, Ohio.

Note: I think Harris Thomson Bromley on 1881 England ce3nsus is Horace J., but don't know for sure so listing him separately. Horace didn't show up on the 1881 EN census with family though he should have. If this is the case, his birthdate would correspond with Harri's approx. birthdate of 1871.
