Trying to contact any descendant of Gillian Rosemary BIRCH b.1937, Palestine, parents John Cyril BIRCH & Annie (Nan) MILNE, both British.
Have found records for a Gillian Rosemary BIRCH who married Roger E GARROD 1956. They lived in Colchester,Essex.
Had 3 daughters, Jacqueline, Suzanne & Jennifer. Associated family names may be Windard, Tucker, Panting.

Wanting to confirm if this is the same Gillian Rosemary BIRCH I am searching for.

I have sent messages to 2 possible granddaughters found on GR but have had no response as yet & don't want to add this family to my tree until I can confirm the details are correct,
Any suggestions much appreciated
Regards, Vicki, Australia.

Gillian Rosemary GARROD nee BIRCH has been contacted & IS the lady I was searching for.

This is the second time members of this list have enabled me to find long lost relatives.

There are now Paternal half sisters & their families in contact with one another for the first time in their lives, spanning UK, America & Australia.

Thank you very much to all who replied, you have helped to make this possible & many people very happy.
