Thank you all for your help! There is alot of info given and I'm trying to sort through it all.

She did tell me that Bertha's sister was Atlanta who was born on the voyage. Atlanta was known by Anna. Grandma said she's wishing now that she thought to ask more when she was younger.

That puts another complexion on things.

Here is a family with an Anne who was born on the Atlantic and she also has a sister named Betsy:
