Welcome to the boards Lisa

The only records of them seem to be their births in Birmingham.

Were they adopted?
Did they emmigrate?
When did you last have contact with them or their parents?
Did Diane remarry and they take a step-father's surname?

Can't be sure but there appears to be a remarriage for Mr Pursall 1967? Did the children stay with mother? and do you know if she remarried?

Nothing coming up aside from their births.

Did their mother have the middle initial L? You have her born 1944 - possible birth reg 1Q 1945.

Possible re-marriage of the mother in 1969, to a Mr Hill

Added - if that info is correct, mother and stepfather have a current listing on the ER.
If you are already in contact, then we're stumped!

Hi

Thanks for getting in touch.

Yes my uncle did get remarried in 1967 and the children did stay with their mother. I was thinking along the same lines myself that Diane had got remarried and they had taken the name but became stuck.

Thanks
