Thanks to GenesReunited member Shirley Ann who located addresses on the Electoral Role, I wrote to Dennis who looked like he could me my husband's lost cousin. We had only recently discovered that my father in law had a sister and one of her sons was Dennis. What a wonderful result! I had written to the right Dennis and he phoned me yesterday. He had just returned from holiday with his surviving brother Brian and they were both thrilled to find out what had happened to their Uncle Jack and that they had relatives that they never knew about either! So follow up every lead that you are given...you never know what you might find. Dennis only lives about one and half hours drive from us and we are going to meet up in the near future. Teresa
