Hi'
Well the obituary I have given tells you she died shortly after the divorce, in 1926.
There were apparently two children mentioned.
One...
GRIERSON Gwenythe J
34209/1917
Parents Robert J and Vera M
At TAMWORTH
She married
ADAM Thomas Robert Henry
GRIERSON Gwentyhe Joy
At ROCKDALE
Vera and Robert GRIERSON married when Sergeant Robert GRIERSON was on leave. July 19th 1916 at Inverell. A news item.
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/185352128
Returning to Tamworth the following year there was a strange incident
Sergeant R Grierson shoots himself at Tamworth
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/121279880
He recovered.
There is more information available about these people and their families.
It depends what you want or need.
What makes you think there was another sibling?

I also cannot find any mention of the birth of any children to Vera and as she seems to have died early what happened to them if there was any?

Hi Sue Thanks so mucH for all this info ,I remember my Mum mentioning that Dad had a sister that died of a heart complaint at an early age but that about it ,as Mum and Dad have both passed away I am finding that I know very little about there lives , and strangely it all started when I wanted to know Dads heritage as he had very olive skin ,thick straight black hair and dark brown eyes ,definately stood out in his army photos as the darker one ,then I found he had a sister called Vera and one source said my Dad was one of 6 children ,anyway I feel I am getting to know my family now and am very grateful for any thing at all Ta

Hi turtle,

1919 https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/item/2138632
1923 - 1926 https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/item/490094
There could be a marriage certificate and should be details of children to the marriage.
