I'm looking for my half siblings, a sister and brother, possibly adopted, born to Constance Harrison. Constance was born in 1936 in Huddersfield and grew up there; her parents were George Harrison and Adeline Alice Porter. These siblings would have been born around the late 1950s or possibly early 1960s. |

Was Constance married when she had these children? I see a marriage in Huddersfield in 1955. Were they the children born to this marriage? |

If you look on FreeBMD, you should be able to find their names. |

I think Constance was married when she had these children. I see the Huddersfield marriage of 1955 which you refer to. But I can only find one child, a boy named Brian Downs from this marriage. How did you manage to see 3 children? Could you tell me how to search for the other 2? |

Also go the Search at the top of here and select Search All Member Trees. Someone with the same name as one of the daughters has all these names in her tree. Click on her name to send her an email. |

Thank you so much for the help. Now I know I'm looking for three half-siblings: Yvonne Downs (born 1956), Brian Downs (born 1958) and Carol Downs (born 1951). That's news I didn't have yesterday. |
