Are you sure that ruby is part of the family as they consistently live Bury but she was born in the Manchester area

Yes,she's definitely part of same family.She's said to of left the family just after the war & 'ran off' with an American GI.Her brother is still alive & we're trying to trace her for him.

Have you looked to see if she married she wouldn't have gone to the USA unless she was married to him .they sent GI brides by sea after the war

Thanks for all your help.Don't know the surname of who Ruby Slater married unfortunately.Nothing heard of her since 1946.Said to of lived in both France & USA-don't know how true? Said to of "run off" with an American GI,also said to of left from Southampton? Found a marriage for a Ruby Slater in Southampton to a John Nisbett? Could be a possible?

Well done Choccy

PM sent with possible contact details for Richard Schmidt.

" J Allen Bennett of Waldron " is on Facebook. Just make an internet search with that phrase and his entry will be one of the results. One of his 'friends' is Janet Schmidt, probably Richard's wife.
