thankyou so much for all your help .

o dear driving me mad what have i started ?ha think im gonna take a trip to libary when kids are back at school see what else i can find out its very confusing but interesting at the same time . :-)

You started this thread saying your mum and her sister wanted some answers. I assume to try to understand why they were adopted, was it a legal adoption? If so, has your mother applied for her adoption records?

If she hasn't already got it, she can apply for free the application form is available on this link - application for birth records:

https://www.gov.uk/adoption-records/the-adoption-contact-register

What the files hold can vary, but there is usually some background information as to why the child was adopted etc. They arrange to retrieve the file and your mother would need to attend an interview (formality, nothing to worry about) which would be arranged near to where she now lives.

thankyou it was a legal adoption i will look it up now x

well just send off for marrage certificate of my maternal grandparents charles and joan im, looking forward to recieving it now . :-)

sadly my aunt patrica passed away a few weeks ago so lets hope my mom susan has half brothers and sisters as im pretty sure he remarried after nan joan died :-S
