Trying to find Evans

I HAVE A LONG LOST COUSIN - CAN YOU HELP FIND HER? Name given to her by her birth family was Barbara Evans. Her Father was Albert Evans, [my father's brother] and her Mother was Dolly. She had an older brother Albert Evans jnr.] The family lived in Egerton Buildings, Barrow in Furness Lancashire. We spent lots of happy hours visiting this part of the family over the years. Albert died very young when Barbara was still a baby/toddler. Barbara was brought up by close relatives Len and Minnie who lived in Lancaster at the time. They may even have adopted her legally? I never saw Barbara again. I kept in touch with Dolly and Albert jnr. over the years. Many years later Dolly told my mother that Barbara had become a nurse in Lancaster. If any one knows of Barbara or her whereabouts I would love to be in touch with her, or indeed if Barbara is reading this please contact me. I have Evans family history back to 1791 if you would like information, or any information to share with me to complete another corner of family history.
