If you think the 1939 register is the correct person, I think you'll need the marriage certificate posted by Chris, to confirm Elizabeth's father's name. (Her children were registered with maiden name Petrie, confirming her Petrie maiden name)

Chris has discounted the Elizabeth Duthie Petrie, there's another that's Mary Elizabeth, so this one may be worth looking at to check if DOB matches the birth date given on death &1939 register:

1915 PETRIE ELIZABETH F STRACHAN /KINCARDINE 268/00 0006

You'll need credits to view the birth certificate at Scotandspeople
