Hi,Trying to trace an Elizabeth Marion Burnet b1892 London,her family relocated to Gateshead ..she appears on the 1911 census but the entry has been scribbled out. I know she emigrated to the USA. She appears on a passenger list in 1928 her surname is Geruschat ,the address in Gateshead is 145 Brighton rd ,Bensham...she returns to the states. Her father is Thomas Sharpe Burnet and her mother is Henrietta Robinson. Please can any folk fill in the gaps?

She appears to have married William Moat in 1911 and travelled out to the USA in 1920 aboard the Philadelphia. Destination McKeesport.

Added: There is also a record of her arriving in the UK in Feb 1920 aboard the Columbia, so there must be an earlier record of her departure that Ive missed as the one above arrives USA August 1920

The 1920 US census has William Moat as aged 38 & immigrated in 1906.  Marion is aged 28 and immigrated in 1912.  Her father is stated to have been born in Australia.

Presumably they separated as William Moat born 15 Jun 1883, England, died 30 Jun 1955 at McKeesport, Allegheny, Pennsylvania. 

His WW1 Draft Card gives his full name as William Archibald Moat, and the WW2 Draft says he was born in Newcastle. Looks like he was married to a Sarah Jane by then.

I don't think those records are online.  Looks like you can order a search here:
