Searching for a Mary Carter, born Keighley in 1939.
Mother Lily nee Jackson. Father Horace.
This lady has been missing for years, about 58 now.
She was last heard of in London. Was going to come back home which by then was Lancaster where she had been to school.
Presume she may have married at some point and now maybe dead. Her elder sister is still alive and her younger sister is too.
Any help much appreciated.
Thank you.
Anne.

Have you tried a search of the deaths using just Mary and her exact date of birth?

Ann please read the original post. Enna is looking for Mary who went missing over 50 years ago and as Mary has living sisters, you can be sure that the birth details are already known

I know. But her sister really wants to know where she is, the elder sister is 86. It's been a long time. Feel so sorry for them. Thanks Claire.
