 This list of correspondants is interesting.

Sybil Nichol was sending letters up to 1952, and then from late 1952 a Sybil Seim was writing to the family - mentions an "Oliver" (possible husband?), a return to England and then later, in the 1960s, living in Sydney.

Sybil Gordon Seim has the right birthday but manages to lose a few years

Good finds, jorose & RJ!

Sibyl Gordon Seim is on a passenger list from Dover to New Orleans by way of Kingston, Jamaica in Dec. 1959.  She is listed as born 12 Mar. 1900 in Australia and an American citizen with passport #191848.

Sibyl Gordon Seim is on another passenger list arriving in New Orleans on 18 Dec. 1960, listed as a US citizen with the same passport number.

Outward UK passenger lists have her going to New Orleans in 1952 and for the above trips, from England to Sydney Australia in 1953 & 1958, and England to Cape Town, South Africa in 1957.
