I'm assuming that you don't know whether Edna had any children..........

Was May born in Canada?

Have you researched her siblings?

You must have an idea of Edna's age when you met her............

Hi. Sorry, am unable to answer any of the questions you ask as I only met Edna the once when I visited all my Canadian relatives in the 1970's. At that time I had never heard of her from my parents or other Canadian family members but it appeared obvious that she was a member of the family. All I know is that at that time she was married to Bill (William) Reisdorf and they lived in the Burnaby area of Vancouver. On the details of my cousin May's death a document I had sent from Canada states that May had one surviving relative being a sister Edna but no-one over there who is giving me family info' appears to have any further information nor can find any so I am unable to answer your questions to throw any more light on this. I'm assuming she has since passed away. Thanks for your contact and sory not to be more helpful.

Desperate to trace details of Edna Gill born in Canada. Unsure if she was the daughter OR SISTER of my relative May Gill. Edna married a William Reisdorf and during the 1970's they lived in Vancouver, Canada, where I met them. May Gill married several times so if Edna was her daughter am unsure which surname she would have had before marriage to William. Any information to help me sort this greatly appreciated.
