Canada has quite strict privacy laws, so it really depends where Dorothy was born whether there is a birth record showing at the moment.

A UK return passenger list showed the family returning to the UK 24 September 1933

George 33 (mechanic) - Ellen 30  - Margaret 9  - Dorothy 7  going to 45 Cambrai Street Belfast.

Have you any idea what happened to Dorothy when she returned to Scotland ? Did she stay in Scotland ?

Sorry I meant Belfast, the passenger list of the return was up above that question.

Did she stay in Ireland ?

So she stayed in Ireland.  Investigated one who was born and went back to Montreal but turned out to be someone else in the end  :-\
