How about the brother William Golder 1878 - 1967 and Ada Louise Stacey Golder 1880 - 1972
Obits for them may mention Dorothy  :-\

They had a daughter Mary listed with them on the 1931 census ? Under Galder
Mary Golder might have kept in touch with Dorothy - them being cousins.  :-\

Thanks again, Sandra.
Have googled Joseph a few times this past week, since I found out he is a well-regarded artist.  I knew he was an artist from the census, but did not realize he had risen to some prominence.  Would love to find one of his paintings at a yard sale - LOL.
