History

Jessie Fordyce (1905-2003), nee Yule, was a member of the singing Three X Sisters. She is sometimes erroneously identified as Jessie Hamilton. She was not, however, a sister of, or related to, the trio's other two members, Pearl and Violet Hamilton, who were each other's sister. The group was initially known as The Hamilton Sisters and Fordyce.
