last seen in Rush Green Hospital Romford in 1944. They will both now be in their 70's
Their mum & my mum were both killed by a german bomb in Valance Wood Road in Dagenham. Their mother's grave is in Whalebone Lane North Cemetery in Chadwell Heath ,alongside my mother's grave.
We leave flowers there on both graves every year, but would love to make contact again.
Any information would be helpful. Ken & Chris H

The only other child I can see is Yvonne born 1935 but nothing after that...could she have been adopted if both parents had died?
