Gertrude Ayton, actress of some renown?

Thanks to Howard, I have the distinct pleasure of introducing Gertrude.

Thank you Howard & thank you to all the Chatters who have helped on the search & followed the story. 

It's almost too much to hope for whenever we're researching, but Howard isn't a family history buff & he found us anyway.  His b-i-l was doing a search on-line for something else, saw a reference to our conversation about Gertrude, and the rest is now unfolding.

In addition to having the fun of learning about Gertrude & her relatives, this research has connected family members who knew nothing of one another before.  Because of this, I won't say it's the end. Instead, it's a wonderful beginning!

Thanks again to one & all.

Oh wow !     

Thanks to Howard, the search is sort of rounded off !     Rootschat at its best !!

Here she is a bit smaller.     When I enlarged the picture, she seems to have had some work done around the chin and neck .... maybe she was getting a bit of middle aged chubbiness, and had the photo touched up to get rid of it.

Here is Gertrude in her earlier days. She was a beauty - & it sounds like that was true both inside & out! (Thanks again Howard.

Is this size OK?

Thank you Monica. It's a much more acceptable size now.

She looks beautiful doesn't she! I love the energy, strength and fun in the look of her face
