I went over to England with Dad, Mum and my sister in 1972. It was Dad's first time back since he left was was a good time for him and us. I went back again in 1978 on my own and Mum and dad went back twice again later on. Dad only had the one sister left (Dorothy) but unfortunatley she has since died. Dad died in 1983 and it is only recently that I have felt that I would like to research dad's and mums family. I brought a computer program and now am busily trying to to some searching. Lucky I am a shift worker in an office enviroment so am able to get some computer time (as it is 5am at present).
I know that I still have some family over in England but not quite sure who, In the Ipswich are as far as I know.

I have sent a message to Christine as I found dad's name came up in her tree, wrong year born (out by 3 years) but correct place of birth (Christchurch mansion in Ipswich) so will await a reply.

Thank you for that and for everything that you have done so far. I will have to leave now as my morning relief has now come in. I will check this site again late today for anything else

Thank you to all the people who have posted replies especially Libby4 and SuffolkSue. The info that SuffolkSue supplied about dad's Immigration has helped a lot. I spoke to mum last night and she was so impressed that people have gathered this for us. I will be applying for all certificates that I can get.
