Hi

I was just throwing it into the ring as a possible - nothing for her going or coming back from abroad. Age fitted and name was similar - if you use  alternatives you get  Davidson/Davison.

Family tales are notoriously difficult, I find. In many of them there's an element of truth but often  a lot of digging has top be done.

Thanks gnu, that is correct.  By the way, I found Elizabeth Davidson Sanderson's death certificate.  She died in Scotland inn 1919 of cancer at the age of 38.
