PM received - reiterating 22.8.80 as Gordon's death date - so I don't know who the chap is who died in 1987, or where the 'other' Gordon is supposed to have died

There is only one birth

The PM also mentions that the parents divorced (would have been helpful to have mentioned that in the first place)

Perhaps the girl lived with her mother - and her 2nd husband

Hi, would anyone be able to help me trace my cousin Elizabeth Shelley born in the Fulham District in 1932. Her parents were George Norman Shelley and Mabel Violet Shelley nee Trott. She had an older brother Gordon DF Shelley born 1929 who passed away 22.8.80. Any information would be wonderful. Many thanks.
