Find Living Relatives

Hi Everyone

I have been searching for my birth father and have come to a complete dead end. I am unable to find much about his family either. His name is Robert Simpson born 17/04/1956 he had a brother named Stephen Simpson. His mother was named Phyllis and father Edward. I believe my father moved to Sweden when I was one any help would be greatly appreciated

Many Thanks :-)

What area of England are we talking about?
Peahen

Have you located his birth for his mothers maiden name

Where was he born ??

From Sara's tree Robert was born West ham area

so I am guessing it is this one, as there is also a brother Stephen and other siblings

Sara can you confirm some details please to make sure it's the right family being looked at , as I see you also have a Stephen in your tree 1954, but different birth area and different mother's maiden name to the W Ham birth for Robert.

Stephen does have a different birth area but mothers maiden name is definitely Cornell.

Thanks :-)

Hi all

Thank you for your help so far but i am still stuck in the same position as before its like the whole family dropped off the face of the earth anymore help would be greatly appreciated :-)

Sara, do you have the marriage cert for Phyllis or birth cert for one of the children which gives her middle name? it would be helpful to know that to look for her death as the informant might have been one of the children?

I can see from ticks on searches that I have previously done that there was a possible remarriage showing for Phyllis, so it really would help to have her middle name.

ok so this looks like the Phyllis that remarried,to Roberts
