Find Living Relatives

Dear Rose,
You may be right,no one knows of him and i have tried various ways of finding him.I cannot find a death or marriage or a birth under his mothers married name.

I will try a different angle,

Thankyou for your input...MFM

But he could have been adopted after this.

Did any of his half siblings know of him? How did you discover Cyril?

Rose

I have his baptism record which says he is Annies son,

MFM

Was is possible he was adopted?

Rose

Thanks to all for your help, yes Fairthorn i could not find a death for Cyril or a name change to Rye,

Thankyou to all,

Best wishes MFM
