I did see a Gerturde Stephen (her maiden name) board a ship at Greenock in 1937 she was aged 31 and listed as housewife..Says her usual address was Union Street Aberdeen. Gertrude was born in Aberdeen and her parents were still there at the time of her father John Stephens death in 1958..Her fathers second wife died in 1937,(same year Gertie boarded the ship) perhaps if I knew if this was herstepmothers usual address at time of death I can confirm if this is the same Gertie. :-S |

Not seeing a divorce for her in the catalogue of the National Archives of Scotland. Unless she divorced elsewhere she would not have been free to remarry legally. Did her husband re-marry? Did he remain in Scotland? |

Gertrude was born 1907 Aberdeen, she married John Fowler Ross Nov 25 1925 Aberdeen. John enlisted 6 moths later..Meanwhile Gertrude is sitting at home twiddling her thumbs, at least thats what we thought she was doing..In 1930 she gave birth to a son Jeffrey Christie Inglis Ross in Edinurgh and gave him away before her husband returned..Were not sure Jeffrey was his, he was stationed in China between 1928-1930 (he may have had some leave) but why give him away, there were no adoption papers to be found. Anyway when John Fowler Ross reurned. Were not sure what happened on his return but Gertrude left the marital home, we think to Canada.. How do we go about tracing her? I did come across 2 marriages for a Gertrude Ross but they werent her...Heeelp :-S :-S |
