Passengers 1820-1957 looking for 2 ladies

Hi Everyone
If anyone is able to do a look up I would really appreciate it. I can see on the New York list there is a Mrs Gwendoline Wilson. Another name listed is Edith Crook also Edith May Crook.
These two names are the same as 2 people I am researching. They have been discussed on this site before and a lot of research has been done prior. I am still trying to find a date of death for them both. Nothing has turned up in Australia. Now looking to see if they lived outside Australia.
Here is some more info to help to cross check with details on the passenger lists.
Gwendoline Vera Wilson
b. June 1907 Queensland
Edith May Crook
b. 28 Aug 1885
They could have departed either Sydney or Brisbane about 1944 onwards and not necessarily together.
Many thanks
JT2011

Hi Jackie
Thank you for the look up. At the moment I do not have a subscription to Ancestry, the details I could only view were the two names. No pages or ports etc.
Unfortunately this Mrs Gwendoline Wilson is not mine.
The reason why I am interested in shipping lists after 1944 is I thought my Gwendoline Wilson (nee Hanson) who lived in Brisbane in 1943 could have been a war bride/fiance travelling to the US. By this time, she had been separated from her husband for many years. They had no children.
A 1943 ER entry in Brisbane is the last record I have found for Gwendoline. The 1947 divorce papers have no address recorded for her.
I have checked UK passenger lists and the details given do not match Gwendoline Wilson b. 1907 Queensland.
If you have time does the Edith May Crook on the New York passenger list come from Australia?
I appreciate all your help.

hi Judy
I saw one of your other post on her a few days ago so I was familiar with the story
I checked usa for a death and marriage but came up with nothing
Edith May Crook no marriage or death for her in USA that I could see
but I will have to have another look because I thought I saw something about her arrival in Aus or a birth in UK
but I had to go out and didn't have time to look any further
give me a min and I will have another look

Hi Jackie
I appreciate your interest in my brickwall.
Edith May Crook (nee Wyatt)
b. 26 Aug 1885 Springhill Qld
Father: William Edward Wyatt
Mother: Mary Ann Elizabeth Delaney
Last ER 1943 Arncliffe NSW
Also no death cert found by NSW & Qld BDM's and their searches. I have searched other states without success. Also searched NZ plus UK data bases with help from rchatters in those countries.
I have just seen on Ancestry Australian Death Index a 1947 entry for an Edith Mey Wyatt. I can't see the detail because I am not signed up. I am wondering could this be her with a misspelling of her name.

The index here is free to search and covers a greater timespan than the Ancestry one. Ancestry index for NSW is based on that index !
If you are considering ordering a certificate, may I suggest you use an Official Transcription Agent.

Do you have the NSW BDM cert/transcript for the 1943 death of an Edith May CROOK #141
CROOK Edith May recorded given names of parents : THOMAS RAY and EDITH MARY registered SYDNEY
Have you tried

The volunteers regularly update that site.
