I am trying to find the death record for Gertrude Ensor born 1892 Openshaw Manchester She married Frank Ensor( on my previous thread) She went to live in Canada from 1923 to 1934 Her Daughter Winifred Joyce travelled with her and I have been able to trace her and get her marriage details She married a Canadian in Canada and I have found her grave where she is buried with her husband in Virginia USA I have tracked all the details so far from Passenger Records But I have not been able to trace the death for Gertrude.. The last record I have is when she is listed on a sailing from Liverpool on 23 March 1935 as a returning Canadian arriving in Nova Scotia on 30 March 1935 I have found a few Gertrude Ensor but none of them fit Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thank You Pam

When she arrived back in Canada in 1935 she was going to join daughter Mrs. Winnifred J. Dunn, 5061 St. Catherine St., Montreal. Her husband, Frank Ensor was in Hyde, England. She intended to reside permanently in Canada.

Curious when Gertrude arrived in November 1923 she was going to join her brother in Montreal but when Frank arrived, 18 March 1923 he was going to join his brother in Detroit, Michigan.

When Winnifred married in 1933 it said she was the daughter of Frank Ensor, England and his wife, Gertrude Clarke, Montreal. Winnifred was a minor and was married with the consent of her mother.
