Thankyou so very much jerose and shaunJ for all your input, searching, help and advice.
I think between us all we have solved the (Deddyhn???) mystery.
I agree there is no trace of this child any place else, so i`m presuming this is Lissa`s
child. It is as you suggested very likely that she pretended she was a Mrs Deddyhn
with her husband away to help her gain employment.
I had seen the 1920 census and had wondered if this Katherine E could in fact be Lissa
and like you i now feel it must be her.
I have just a few minutes ago found Josephine Israel age 17yrs on the Tuscania
in Oct 1922 with the same address 6941 Ridge Boulevard, leaving Glasgow Scot
and returning to New York. I think we can safely say Katherine E is definitely Elissa.
The Elgin link would  also confirm this is Lissa as her sister MaryAnn lived in
 Elgin at this time and she had many family members still in Scotland.
Thank you all for your help and if i do find anything else to substantiate our story
i will off course post it here.  Roe.

NO! NO! Roe..it can't be over!!
Why did she change her name to Katherine?
What about the marriage announcement to Cecil Richard in 1903?
Friends in Baltimore?? All lies???
What happened to Lissa's child?
Inquiring minds still want to know!
I see a movie...a novel..something out of all of this!
It MUST continue!!
I need an ending here!!!

Thank you for a most interesting post and journey Roe!

Hi Deborah, Yes there is still a few unanswered questions to unlock
what happened to her child? Ive still to find the answer to that one.
the marriage announcement ,i think that was a fake for whatever
reason, she was married in New York  just 5 months  after that
 announcement (to Charles). Maybe she was paving the way to
her new life in USA, who knows.
I'm going to try and find out what happened to the child next.
I`ll keep you posted , we might get a novel out of this yet lol.
