Were you aware of a possible second son for Dorothy?

Flick.

If Dorothy and Andrew's surnames changed also, it is a vital piece of information. Do we need to be looking under Woods, Coulson or Stevens?

Harry didn't mention Ian to start with but it turns out he knew of him. Perhaps there is more he knows but forgot to mention? If Dorothy remarried then looking under Woods is a waste of time.

thanks for all the interest , FLOWERPOT2 your info gives me hope.
As far as i know DOROTHY & family have always lived around Croydon, all the info i've gathered is from B.M.D.
I last saw Dorothy and her brother Edwin in the late 1940s as a 7-8 year old, after that all contact was lost
