I am looking for my deceased Mothers half sister. She was born about 1948 and named Josephine. Josephine was later adopted by a couple who lived in Ealing who I believe belonged to a religious organisation called the Plymouth Brethren.
The birth mother of Josphine was my Grandmother, Eva Alexandra Arberry (Arbery being her maiden name). Her married name was Doarks, but she only lived with my Grandfather for a few years and left him and his two small daughters about 1929-30, so I do not know what surname was given to Josephine.

I can't locate her birth. The only Josephine with MMN Arbery is a Josephine Ashton 1943. None with MMN Arberry.
EDIT I am assuming England/Wales though!!

Are you sure about all this - timing seems a bit out:

Marriages Dec 1919 (>99%)
Arbery Eva A Doarks Rochford 4a 1643
Doarks Sydney A Arbery Rochford 4a 1643


EDIT OK, was thinking she would be too old, but I guess not!

Births Sep 1901 (>99%)
Arbery Eva Alexandra W. Ham 4a 303
