OBE Miss Jean Jolly

I am looking for Jane / Jean Donald Jolly, but have concluded that this is not the one born in 1896 to David Rennie Jolly and Margaret Lyall Donald.  I am looking for one born possibly born to David Douglas Annand Jolly and Margaret McFarlane Donald.  They were married in 1907.  I do not know that she exists.  I know this sounds nuts, but my mother is adamant that Miss Jean Jolly, OBE matron of both Stobhill and Southern General Hospitals was her grandfather's cousin or her dad's aunt.  When she christened the planes at Renfrew airport in 1955 she was wearing her OBE pin which she may have gotten in 1954.  I figure if the Jane born to David Rennie Jolly & Margaret Donald is the wrong one, the most logical other pair to have a daughter with Donald as the middle name is David Douglas Annand Jolly and Margaret McFarlane Donald.  This family is from Kincardine & Glasgow.  She is also not Jane Annand Jolly born in 1884 to Robert Walker Jolly.  Of all the people my mom wants me to find this is it!  My mom remembers her parents talking about the planes.  She also knows they saw her frequently and my mom's dad called her his aunt...but, it could have been his dad's cousin.  Someone help!

Hello,

If I were you I'd  get a copy of  her death certificate, it should then give her parents names.

I see that 2 other threads refer to the above lady - one marked 'completed'.
