Hi.

  Verlie was a nurse at Toronto hospital Weston Ontario at the time of her marriage.

Short note in the Toronto Star 29 May 1937... "A supper dance was held last night at the King Edward for the graduating nurses of the Hospital for Sick Children.  Among the many were...."   Miss Verlie Robinson is one of the names listed. 

The King Edward is a very nice hotel in downtown Toronto.

I see Irene Amy Miller Coberly's obit on Ancestry.   Lots of names of relatives - but nothing about a possible first husband with the last name Thomas.

The Lighter Side / Re: Can this man find a link to any Welsh person in 60 seconds?
« on: Sunday 30 March 25 21:07 BST (UK)  »
I have watched my Dad's cousin do this.    She is very good at it!!    Certainly a "Welsh thing"!   She may take more than 60 seconds - but she will usually get there :).   It is really fascinating to listen to her "zero in".....

My Dad has been in Canada for several years...it is quite surprising how often he can find a mutual  connection with other Welsh people we encounter on this side of the pond!

Maybe the Will was Probated in Scotland?   If property in Scotland was also involved??
