Unworthy wife

 

The following WFA pension doc on Ancestry has been annotated 

with the following

 

The S.G.C

 have decided widow is unworthy to receive pen from public ­funds?

But  _______ ?  pensions ______ ?  be issued to her for children in her care

 

(unworthy wife)

 

I think the gist is that the widow's pension has been stopped but she will still receive a pension for her two children

 

any ideas what S.G.C is short for
