gertrude May Carton born 1903/1904 Birmingham England
« on: Tuesday 10 May 22 21:12 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out anything about Gertrude who emigrated to Freemantle Western Australia on 21st November 1935. She sailed from Southampton on the Jervis bay with the Aberdeen and Commonwealth Line. She was single and a domestic- and would love to know anything about what happened to her once she arrived.
Thank you.
