Thanks for that. So the entry I found for Canada to hawai to australia was probably her return journey from visiting her sister in Canada. |

Cannot see a Drury/Faulkner marriage, or a variation on Drury either. |

No I know I couldn't find one either but perhaps they never married? Feel like I'm going round in circles! I do love a puzzle though. |

So still haven't been able to link this Elizabeth Drury to my step grandfather George Henry Drury. I located the L Flood who was listed on her death certificate and found that Elizabeth lived with her and her mother but I have searched their families wider and not found any other Drury connection there. Anyone got any other ideas? |

Have just emailed the cemetery to see if they can check if she was buried with anyone so fingers crossed! |

Had an email back from them and it turns out that Elizabeth was buried in a communal grave rather than a family grave along with unrelated people. They couldn't find a George Drury buried there before 1946 either. Worth a shot though! Back to the drawing board! |

This looks like the George Henry Drury who died in 1914. No children born to the marriage. |

Yes I think you're right rootsgatherer so that eliminates that one.I seem to be going around in circles on this one! |

Have had a break on this at last! Managed to find that Elizabeth Drurys maiden name was Dean and shows up on 1911 census as follows: |

Have you found the sister and son in 1881? |
|||
|
Sarah | Report | 8 Nov 2012 19:04 |
Yes Elizabeth's sister is living with her husband and son in South Hornsey in 1881 - no mention of Elizabeth though. Also I've found their parents in 1881 and she isn't listed then either. |
