My mum is searching for her cousins Ronald and Barbara, possibly still living.
They are the children of Charles Town and Lillian (nee Ford).
Ron was born 1930 and Barbara C1945 possibly the Hackney area.
Ron married Joan Maud ? in Hackney 1952. Joan passed away in 1997.
Mum moved to Australia in 1954/5 with her parents George and Elsie Taylor.
Elsie was the niece of Harriet Town (nee Smith), Ron and Barbara's grandmother.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Researching:
Fish - Essex, Middlesex. Taylor - Middlesex. Smith - Bethnal Green, Homerton, Hackney

Yes Jax, that is Ronnie. But many many thanks again for the lead on Barbara. I have located her address and phone number, and hopefully the cousins can be reunited very soon!

Jax, just to thank you again. Mum and Barbara made contact, the first time in 60 years. I am looking forward to the emails and sharing of photos and information now.
