Have checked all deaths, marraiges to 1993 but can't find any trace. I think they must have been adopted or shipped abroad. Because the children went in to the workhouse with my father when he was born, he was illegitimate; I assume the reason for them entering the workhouse. My father's name is Sydney. His brothers are Ralph John Baker born 14th sept 1916 , silvertown, West ham. William Richard Baker born 14th aug 1919 Tonbridge, tunbridge Wells and twin sisters Lilian and Katherine born on 7th jan 1922 in Tonbridge. It is late in my father's life and would be fantastic for him if we could find any of these Thanks Alan
