Can you say when she was last in contact with either of them?

There appears to be a marriage on 1970 in Rochford for Alan.

Have you looked for children of this marriage, and for any of them on 192.com?

It helps to know how much searching has already been done.

Did your friend stay in contact with her parents, or could have either brother been the informant on the death certificates?

Thank-you

Cyril is in at least one tree on here.

Have you tried to contact the tree owner?

Ellen has pm'd me to say that all the children were either fosted or adopted, which could explain the lack of any obvious further references to Cyril.
