	How do I go about finding some one who worked on the stage. My father was adopted and I am trying to trace his real perants. All I know of them is that they were called Spence and they worked on the stage in London, They might of come from Balham as this is were my father was born. I have tryed the Water rats with no come back as yet ( and the same for the other stage related sites I could find.) The time span involved is around 1930 onwerd.
