Lost Cousin

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Alfred Report 5 Jul 2013 19:13

I Have for months been trying to find some information on my Cousin known as Gloria Hope, her father is my mother`s brother Leonard Frederick Hope (known as Fred) born 17 Jun 1909 Twickenham, Middlesex; Registered: Brentford, Middlesex; he died in 1968 Hounslow, Middlesex
He married name unknown where also unknown, I am unsure where Gloria was born. She with her father visited my mother`s home in Isleworth, Middlesex as couple of times but lost contact. The only thing I can remember of Gloria she could say the alphabet backwards faster than I could say it forwards.
I know this is not much to go on, but hoping someone out there can help.

I see 2 marriages. Possible she's in Swanley as Fuller now.

Son on Facebook.

Edit: Probably the one born Sheppey as the age is closer to the husbands.
