Sorry if this seems a naive question to a no doubt experienced genealogy list - but I'm researching forwards rather than backwards as we usually do! My father was adopted and died before I was born so its important to me to try and trace his relations rather than ancestors. Thanks for reading this. Sincerely Valerie High Wycombe, England
