Hi Unknown, I guess you've already found and followed your grandfather's siblings as you know there were 9 of them and like you say lots of potential family out there.

You probably already know your dad's parents both remarried - Arthur in 1954 and Daisy Emma in 1961.

Did your dad ever get his files from Barnardos to see if there was any more info about his siblings or parents?

married 5 years. 6 children born 5 still living

Daisy E Ebbage died same quarter as born in 1929.

i don't think that marriage can be right ArgyllGran - Betty would have only been 13 years old.

There's a marriage for Betty J in the Yarmouth area in 1945, and then two possible births of her children in Norfolk, 1946 & 1948

You'll find them on http://www.freebmd.org.uk.

Have you made contact with or already know Susan Home?
She has a Betty, Michael, Daisy & Arthur Ebbage in her tree. It could be that she has researched down from an earlier mutual relative.

Welcome to the boards Ebbage -

If your father was born in 1934 and in the Yarmouth reg district, he has/had more than 2 siblings - or was it only Betty and Ruby who are missing?

Ruby L 1930
Betty J 1932
Your father 1934


Was there more than one Ebbage/Spinks marriage? Results for Yarmouth also include
Daisy E b1929 & Michael J 1938.

My father was placed into a Barnardo's orphanage in 1937. He had 2 sisters, Betty and Ruby. His parents were Arthur Randall Ebbage and Daisy Spinks. We are trying to find out what happened to his sisters and any other relatives. His father was one of nine children, so there is lots of relatives out there somewhere. Please help. Thank you
