Florence May Paul was born about 1912, not sure where,
during the 1930s 40s she worked at Harmston Hall in Lincolnshire .
she gave birth to Pauline Paul in 1941 at Dysart road, Grantham , this was a workhouse,
in 1946 she gave birth to another child, the person We are trying to find
Colin Stanley Paul , also born at the above address,
the little girl stayed at a childrens home in Grantham until late 1947, she was about 6 yrs old and then she was adopted, given a different name and moved away from the area,
her birth mother married in 1955 to Walter Gell, they lived in Gainsborough ,Florence died in 1996 aged 84 yrs,
on their marriage cert the address was 45, Garfield street.
maybe when Pauline was adopted her brother Colin was also adopted and given a new name , he would have been abt a year and a half by this point.
any leads gratefully recieved, time is slipping by.
