Daughter of Henry Bristow and Lizzie Emma Gayen, wife of Albert Hedley Outerbridge and mother of Grace, Margaret, Gordon Hedley, Douglas Thomas, Doris, Norma Gertrude, Carol Esther and Arthur H. Outerbridge.
Doris Violet Bristow was born in Woolwich (Dartford), Kent in 1896, the daughter of Henry and Lizzie Emma Gayen Bristow. Henry Bristow was a Police Constable at the William Street Police Station in 1891, lodging at the police station before his marriage to Lizzie. A year after Doris was born, her mother, Lizzie, died and Doris went to live with and was adopted by her father's sister, her aunt, Annie Bristow Clayson and uncle Henry Clayson. In 1907, the Henry and Annie Clayson emigrated to Canada, answering the Grand Trunk Railroads call for skilled labor, and when the Claysons left for Montreal, she travelled with them. She was listed on two censuses with the last name Clayson.
Doris worked as an Invoice Clerk at a Dry Goods store in Montreal by the age of 15. She met and married Albert Hedley Outerbridge, a widower, in 1918, at St. Mathews Presbyterian Church, Pointe St. Charles, Montreal and then moved to Bailey's Bay, Bermuda. She and Albert had eight children; Grace, Margaret, Gordon Hedley, Douglas Thomas "Feenie", Doris, Norma Gertrude, Carol Esther Louise, and Arthur H. Outerbridge.
According to my mother and grandmother, she went by the nickname "Doll" and was shown in the family address book as Doll Outerbridge.
