looking for the daughters of my Uncle John Dean
John born in Middlesbrough married Sheila D Stewart also born in Middlesbrough in 1961 they had two daughters KAREN (1962) born in Middlesbrough and ROSEMARIE (1963) born in Coventry. After they divorced Sheila may have remarried and emigrated to Australia.

There's a 1974 Dean marriage in Chichester to a Mr Neary. Is that the 2nd marriage?

It might be worth purchasing the certificate to check its the correct person. Sheila's status should be shown as Divorced. It would also help to track down her own family who may have retained contact, as well as giving her age.

Mr Neary looks to have been born in 1943.

When do you believe Sheila D was born?

The only births for Sheila D Stewart in England or Wales are

1920 – Chesterfield, Derbyshire
1940 – Romford Essex
1945 – Liverpool South
1950 – Surrey Mid Eastern. [ This one would be too young to have married John Dean in 1961]

Sheila was born in 1940, I have a possible remarriage to William B Thomas in Coventry in 1965, as John also remarried in 1966 so they must have divorced roughly around 1964

Sheila was born in Romford then. You can see her brother and sister on FreeBMD.
The sister also married in Middlesboro.
