I would like to find out more information about my Grandmother's family, her name was Louisa/Louise Moore, born 1917 in Aston, Birmingham, Married James Patrick O'Donnell in Birmingham in the late 40s, and she died in Northamptonshire, 1985 (tho is registered as 1986).
Her siblings that I know of were:

Thomas Moore: Year of birth unknown, but between 1912 - 1926. Was also born in West Midlands area, and he immigrated to New Zealand at some point during his adult years, and as far as I know, is still alive and still lives there.

Douglas Moore: born 1921, in Kings Norton, West Midlands. Apparantly after the war (he fought in Arnhem) he also moved to New Zealand, so far this is all the information I have on him.

Frances Moore (also known as Margie/Margaret/Marjorie) M. Moore: born 1919 in Aston, West Midlands. Currently living in Northamptonshire, was married two or three times but do not know names of husbands.

Stephen Moore: born 1913 in Aston, West Midlands, I don't know anything else, except that he had a twin who died when he was a baby, called Reuben

{Info that I am unsure about: other siblings were Frank, possibly Patricia. I think they all lived on Kent Road, Birmingham.

I do not know their Parents names, but on the records their mothers maiden name is stated as BRITTAIN. She died in the 70s/80s I think.

Her husband was obviously MOORE, and was either English or Irish. I would guess that they were both born around 1890.

If anybody has any information about the Moore/Brittain family, please get in touch!
