Angela, I assume you are trying to locate your mother and sibling? I see your mother has a middle initial - I can't see a birth for her in England or Wales.
Have you considered getting her marriage cert to Newton - the more info you can glean about her the better.
I am assuming you have tried the usual sites - Facebook, 192.com. Friends Reunited?
