Hi Kirsty, I have realized that I have been spelling Kerby incorrectly..It is in fact "Kirby"..Today through the census I have found birth year of my aunt Lilian..She was born anytime between Jan/Feb /March..1946(maiden name burrows) Also today I found she was married in April/May/June of 1963..Married in Thurrock(found she had a son born there too(1967)..Its all very informative but Im at a loss as to what to do to find her..I know she lived in Essex/Thurrock area..and that she lived for some time in Stanford Le Hope (Corringham) I last saw her 1991..any ideas?thanks
