LOOKING FOR EMIGRANT TO THE USA

Edwin Draisey left for the USA in 1889 on the Britannic.His travelling companion(not his wfe .He already had a wife and children in England) was a Gertrude Draisey (spinster) variously described as 21 or 31 years of age. I cannot find any record of a Gertrude Draisey born before this date.Does anyone know of a Draisey using this name or perhaps a relative travelling to the USA using this as an alias.

Many thanks,
Ian Crichton
