My grandad was put in a home from birth,and adopted by a family from derby at a later date.As far as i no he had no info on any brothers or sisters.He did in fact try and trace his mother when stationed at a barracks in shepherds bush during world war 2.But he never talked about if he found his mother.Thanks

Did Edith Maude Bills go on to get married at all? If so any marriage cert would have her age, address and her father's name...that's how you go backwards from there.
