Hi I am trying to trace any decendants of my grandmothers sister Joyce,I think she was born around 1906 in Lambeth,london.Her mothers name was Elizabeth Eliza Mattock,fathers name was Frederick Charles Brittain.They both died of tuberculosis.I have been led to believe that my grandmother Gladys eveline and her two sisters were placed in a military orphanage in Bognor regis when their parents died.When my gran married my grandfather Archibald Dickens,one of the witnesses was a Joyce Brittain Long,i believe this to be one of my grans sisters.I am also been told that she moved to Scotland(unconfirmed).I do not know the other sisters name or when she was born.I would be grateful for any help.
