Welcome to the boards Mary.

If you add "Australia" to your title you may attract someone with access to Australian records.

If their parents didn't marry, might they also be be known as Close or Mckay. These are the other surnames which you believe your mother might have used at some point.

If you can get a copy of his Death Cert then this MAY have and address from whom ever supplied the information.

Which MAY lead to finding someone who knows about the family
