Yes, done a fair bit of research on Sybil

Lacking (1) photos of Sybil

(2) reason Bertram went to USA, and it appears never came back or nobody from the family visited.

(3) reason for Sybil to go to USA in 1956 - New jersey, when Father died in 1953

She's one of these people you feel there should be a photo of somewhere! Unfortunately, I can't help with the other parts of the query though. Nothing in any of the newspapers?

Did have a possible picture in the papers from 1964 I think it was a teachers reunion, but the scan is poor.  I did get in touch with the press archives, but they don't have the original. My contact there is going to look for any specific pics.

The Aberdeen archives are moving, and they will not be about until the end of the month.

originally in the section in my published book I had it as a few one liners, but have now expanded it into a section on Sybil alone.   This is for my "superbooK" as it will cover books 1 and 2 in a single book.

The search goes on........

A picture has been found

Just working with the source on the price (newspaper). Bargaining with the fact I have provided the paper with photos and helicopter flights in the past.

The photo is from 1978, but didn't appear in the press.

This will help my book greatly in securing the picture!
