Hi all my names Audrey and I'm hoping to get intouch with my late sisters children.my sister Barbara passed away in 1982,her maiden name was dickinson.her children's names were Elizabeth and Steven,there dad's name was Ozzie,not shore if that was a nick name or short for something.Barbara was from Blackpool and the children were both born in Croydon.when barbara passed away our other sister was told that they may have to be taken into care,that was the last contact she ever had with them or their dad.

No idea if that was his name I only met him once in 1979.

I'm sorry, but you simply can't make assertions about people being adopted just because you can't find records.

Not everyone marries......especially these days, and opting out of the public ER is very common

There is an Elizabeth Kanie of the right age on the ER in Kent up to 2014

In one set of records, she is attributed with the second initial K, but that could be an error. Her second name actually begins with 'B'

Steven is in a tree on GR, owner's name 'steven'................send him a message

Barbara Dickinson is in the same tree

Search trees is always worth checking when you're trying to find connections

Elizabeth's partner is on Facebook - look for the one who says he lives in Ashford.

Although its a dormant account, a message might get through.

Alternatively, search for Elizabeth in Ashford on
https://www.freeelectoralroll.co.uk/Find_People.asp

192.com, a pay to view site, lists Elizabeth + her partner to 2015 at the first address from FER. It would be worth writing - even if they've since moved, the new occupiers may have a forwarding address

Be patient.............not everyone looks at computers on a daily basis.

Have you tried the route(s) suggested by DetEcTive?

Hello Audrey, I am friends with Elizabeth Kanie. Please message me so I can put you in touch. She's not great on computers and is a little wary about getting in touch after all these years. Diane

Diane,,

Its been quite a while since Audrey posted and may have not persued the matter further,,,,,
If you click on her name you can use the message system to contact her direct.
Edit out the pre wording in the message box and add your own wording.
If the lady still has the same email she will be notified to that e-address.

or if that doesn't work, come back and we can try hunting her up for you in the same way as helpers here hunted up Elizabeth :-)

although it doesn't seem to have done any good if she didn't get in touch!
