Hi caroline please feel free to message me
I am one of Barry's sons if the dates are right so I can help you with the info and maybe get in touch with them

Kay??
I work in local government so I’m understand that I need to be really careful

as his birth name no longer exsists for that person,,it breaks no rules of data,,,,,its only relevant to anyone that should be searching for birth family,

but his details have been exposed now,,,

Kay??
His mum died in 1999
I’ve found details of her granddaughter but need to be sensitive and very careful

Anthonys adoption was of course after 1954 as the records show he was with mother in the UK at that time..,,,

Put Anthonys birth in your tree if its on this site,,,,,,as his name will have probally changed it will be reconised should anyone look,,maybe also add his mothers name,,as its very likely shes passed away.,

It’s possible that’s Barry as there is a Barry Jr with the middle name Noelle

Kay ??

Anthony was adopted , I found records for him being born in Eastbourne in 1952

Another family member has been looking for him, but it’s difficult as he was adopted

Don't know if this is the same man in 1980 - this time with a Dianne Noellen Jeffery:

That’s all I know

That is the correct Barry :-)

Anthony didnt travel with them,,,I put Anthony was mentioned on the records as a Brother,,,he was a half brother to the boys and stayed with his mother in UK.

The info posted by ArgyllGran was that NO Anthony travelled with them

If anyone was adopted you won’t be able to pick up a lead on them. Worth googling to see if the Aus gov. Has a register you can add your name to.

Thank you Nameslessone and Kay?
I will try the Australia archives

Thank you for answering me

My late father lead a very interesting life
I didn’t realise that little Anthony travelled with them , I’d heard he was adopted in Australia?

I have Barry and Michael’s birth records and I believe when Anthony was born Lilian just registered the name Jeffery and not Birch
A relative of Lilian posted on here looking for Anthony, sadly everything goes blank in Australia

The National Archives of Australia have research guides for the migration children.

Barrys Keiths child migration lists brother Anthony in 1954 as then aged 2,plus also brother Michael Paul.
