You can get middle initials from FreeBMD. You can then use those to track them down in the phonebook.

Looks like she had more than just 3 sons. What happened to the others? Did they stay in the UK?

What was Beatrice's maiden name? I want to see if the sons have middle initials and you don't mention when/where they were born.

Beatrice Ivy Osborne & her 3 sons, Raymond, Royston & Reginald, moved to Canada in the mid sixties. The only address I have for any of them was in Mississuaga, Ontario. I have tried unsuccessfully tried to locate any of them for the last 3 years. Any help would be gratefully accepted.
