It's 9 years since geneseeker1 posted this request.  A lot has happened with regard to online records since then.

I hope he/she comes back to Rootschat.

Thank you :)   I had picked the marriages up and was surprised to learn Snowdrop was in South Africa. I have no idea how or why she went there. The investigations continue. :)

Hi everyone, I have found a death record for Snowdrop.  She passed away on 1st July 1987 in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.  Cause of death: cardiac arrest.  She was still married to Douglas Stuart.  I haven't been able to find out how she got to South Africa but will keep looking.
regards.
