I'm not too sure if you are the right person i should be contacting, if not are you able you able to give me an email address of the person/s that i should contact for the relevant information and help that i need. my mothers name was patricia Mair john. she was born in Haverford west, Dyfed wales on 6 Jul 1962.She died in Jun 1992 in Dorset. Her father was called Ronald Alfryn John and mother was called Alfreada Heather Hooper. the reason that I'm writing is that Ronald Alfryn johns mother is drawing a dead end for me in my family tree. here are her details. i hope you can help. Eunice Rosina Rubens/Robbins Born: 6 Sep 1907 county borough of Neath Port Talbot, South Wales. Died: Jan 1991 Mid Glamorgan her husbands name and details are as follows: Emrys John Born: 1901 9 High Street Kenfig Hill Pyle, Glamorgan Died: 1970 Pyle, Glamorgan, , Wales Here is the tricky bit: eunice's father was named frederick robbins, but as far as i have been told, he changed their name from rubens during the war. They were Jewish. I think Frederick was born between 1870-73, but I'm not sure if he's British or not. i have searched for Eunice's birth cert and am unable to obtain it from KEW. I was hopefully wondering if you can give me any information whatsoever on Eunice rosina Robbins/rubens. If She was born in Wales? and if not what year did she arrive in Wales. Please help 'cause this mystery has had me stumped for a while now. I have attached her marriage to Emrys John certificate, in case that helps. I would be truly grateful for anything regarding this matter and wish you a nice day. Mary Rhiannon Lochrie Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
