Thanks for that, I'll try following up on the sister, I am sorting my worldwide access today.
I have since found passenger lists to show that Doreen left NYC just months after arriving in SF and then is back resident in london. So that is why you didn't find her. However, I still plan to try and track down her father, George Frederick Forwood born 1880 NYC to George Peplow FORWOOD and Mary Forwood (nee. PIM).

Hi there,
I have George Frederick Forwood in my family tree, and his wife was Maud Gordon. They were married 20 Apr 1904 in Paddington, Middlesex. I have wife's father as John Forbes Gordon. I have the Forwood Family Tree World Wide, so if you want some more info please reply.
