I have an "A. Tate" signed watercolor (pics attached), and I can't find any artist information. Is anybody familiar with this artist?

Thanks A bunch - And thanks for your previous answers.

Hi to the both of you

I had found two: sally ann tate 1908? 1922? conflicting biographies...

You can see her signature fairly clearly at the following link (mouse over the painting):

I think the signature may be right. Yours may be an early watercolor before she became better known.
