No his name is not listed , this is why I hoped for a name in her marriage . Jean had 5 children I think 4 were adopted out but 1 she kept and she was born in Heidelberg Victoria 1958 and is still alive , but is no help at all, she maintains she only knew she mothers name

Sounds interesting . Although I live in Queensland I know nothing about Victoria,so the place names mean nothing , but I'll away and Google

Perhaps she never actually married but used her partners surname?
