Hope you don't mind Vicci, but as by implication Carol isn't a UK resident, should your Orphington actually be a typo for Orpington?
Hopefully the address by PM would have rectified the situation ;-)

Someone with the name Terry has Alexandra Boyns in a GR tree.......send a contact message.
And.......to give yourself a chance of having people contact you....put these people in your GR tree. But NOT any living ones, unless each of them gives you permission to do so...........

No, leave it here now that work has been done on it.................
For your next step...............look in 'search all trees' to find whether anyone else on GR is researching these lines.
Also, use freebmd................and look for births etc
You'll find one Sheen/Dobson child's birth, but, sadly, also his death as an infant

Thanks, Gins and Reggie, for all your contributions. I probablyI should have posted my query on the Living Relatives board but I didn't notice that option until now. I am interested in finding the children of the couples mentioned. They would be the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of Alice Caroline Denton Adams Dobson and Willey Dobson. Alice was my great-grandfather's cousin. While she resided in the UK, my branch of the family lived in the US. I have a letter from Walter Dobson asking the American cousins if they could keep his son during the World War II bombing. I don't know if the son came to the US. It would be interesting to know if he did come to stay. I have very little information concerning my US or UK relatives. I am new to these message boards. Should I repost my message to the Living Relatives Board? I have noticed that we shouldn't post about a family twice.

If, by 'obituaries', you refer to newspaper announcements of deaths, try looking for the local newspapers on line.
But bear in mind that only a very small percentage of deaths is ever announced in the press
