Hi all

Just ran across these old posts...

Curious when/where Kathleen Jean Gerity was born? Was it around 1911/12? If so, that might explain her mother's absence in the Fishguard 1911 census that my gm, Trix, was listed on.

I did find a BMD listing of Kathleen marrying Ernest in New South Wales in 1937.

"The S.S St. Andrew The latest addition to the G. W. Railway's fleet of turbine vessels has resumed her position on the station between Fishguard and Rosslare, and is being commanded by Capt. Gerity. The vessel carried nearly 2,000 passengers to Rosslare on Monday afternoon. "

"Early on Sunday morning the turbine cross-channel vessel "St. David," with Capt. Gerity on the bridge, was again placed upon the Rosslare service, after having been fitted with a new propeller in lieu of the one damaged recently, and having undergone her periodical survey at Birkenhead."
