Hello im trying to trace a daughter of James E Collard 1932 Bedwellty Monmouthshire and Diana J Hill . They were married in a place called Deben ? I think this is Debenham Norfolk ?

The Daughters name is Valerie J Collard born 1962 in Deben. I think Valerie may have married a John Holloway, Sep 1986 in Tunbridge Wells in Kent.

Thank You . Darren

Valerie's Father James E spent some time in the Bromgrove area as a boy. He had a sister called Olga who died there in 1938. I Think she was about 5 when she died.

Looking on Ancestry i cant see any deaths for James E or Diana. Hopefully something will turn up.

Deben is a Registration District, it covers quite a lot of places ( villages...towns) in Suffolk.

Looks like they are in the US so the one you found earlier is correct.

She is on Facebook and the phonebook under her married surname (begins with H as you should know if you click on her name) and lives in Roseville, CA.

Hello

Thanks everyone for all your help, checked thru the White pages as best i could, i think i have a phone number, but best of all, i think i also have her mother and father there as well aged 74 and 78, so thats an even better bonus as my mother knew him in the 50s.

Cheers all for your help.
