Hi, I am helping a relative track down her Northern Ireland mother's parents, and would appreciate it if anyone can suggest some sources/links. Basically, her grandmother, Helen Marie Power(s) was born in June 1929, Holywood, County Down. All she knows is that her grandmother was handed, as a baby, to a woman outside a Post Office ('would you hold her for a minute while I go in here') then disappeared. The woman (left holding the proverbial baby), was called Ethel, and she called the police. She was told by the police to keep the baby for a while. After 6 months Ethel was told to either keep her permanently or hand her to an Orphanage, so she kept her. She believes her grandmother's parents names were Eva Taylor and Michael Powers, but a lot of info, were unfortunately lost in a house fire. To recap: Helen Marie Powers born June 1929, Holywood, County Down, Believed parents of Helen were Eva Taylor and Michael Powers Helen raised by a lady called Ethel. We don't know how Helen knew the names of her parents, as she is now deceased and her documentation was lost in a house-fire Not a lot to go on, I know, but I am hopeful someone will provide a lead :) Colin
