I am looking for a friend...Her maiden name was Ruth Cole, she had a twin sister Beryl, They were from Runcorn,Cheshire. They both worked at the US airforce Base in Warrington Lancashire. Both married GI's anmd moved to the USA about 1955. Ruth lived in California and returned to England sometime in the sixties,after getting dicorced. (maybe they returned to England then got a divorce) The last I heard was that Ruth was living somewhere in the Cottswolds. I believe she would be about 78/79 I would appreciate any help in locating Ruth.
Thank you !

Have you tried a search on this site, friends reunited or the electoral rolls if you know her married surname,
Good luck,
Liz

Thanks Liz, No, I don't know her married name. The first husband's name was Fred Downes. I thought that perhaps someone living in the Cottswolds may see the message and may know of her by her history. I did try 'Friends Reunited....No luck.

Do you know what happened to Beryl? I can see a marriage in runcorn in 1955 that could be her but not seeing her on a passanger list

Both Ruth and Beryl came out to the States at different times.

If that is Beryls marriage she had twin sons in 1956 does it sound right?

jax

Perhaps they left after 1960?

I will send you Beryls marriage and sons and perhaps you could find them in the white pages?

I hope you find something tweedledee :-)

It may also be worth sending a message to the two people that have Ruth in their tree, one of them also has Beryl
