Hello Beth, Can't find her Birth cert. Think she was born in South Africa [if I've found the right family]. To check this out - I've sent for her Sisters Marriage cert, which I'm now waiting for! Hope I'll find 'Auntie Blossom' was born in the UK - then I'll send for her Birth cert.This hopefully will give me the information I need. At least genealogy has taught me to be patient [well sort of]!! Thanks so much for your suggestions. Christine.
