I see his father had 2 middle names, so a possible??

Do you have your grandmothers marriage cert to be sure of her fathers name?

Do you have her exact date of birth?

Hi, it was suggested I post on here as well as the general board, sorry for any repetition.

I am looking for my Grandmother, Millicent Louise French born in 1921, place unknown but probably in the London area. It is not the Millicent French with the mother Mouland, this is the only one who keeps coming up and I have been through that family and it isn't the right person unfortunately. My grandmother married Alfred Bateman in Watford, 1943. She died in 2007 so her death record isn't listed yet.
She has a sister, or possibly only half sister, Ivy Gertrude French born in Wandsworth, 1919, to Rose Legg and William Henry Brown French (he is listed as William French).
I have not been able to find any further information for Rose Legg and William French that fits, no marriage certificate and no other children.

Either William French or Rose Legg, or both, may have died in the early 1920's as my grandmother and great aunt were taken into a convent in Finchley when 'they were young' but don't have a year, and unfortunately the convent has destroyed records for that period.
There is also a brother, or possibly half brother, by the name of Valentine French older than my great aunt and grandmother, but the only record in that name is not the right person as he died too early, my Valentine French was certainly alive in the 1970s, and we believe he would have been born around 1910.

I hope that makes sense, any thoughts appreciated :-S
