I am searching for my half brother and sister Graeme (born 1963) and Deborah (born 1966) Edwards - father Robert and mother Marguerite.
Anyone help?

Hello Lynne, and welcome to the boards.

Please tell us what you know ... so we know what you know because if we know less than you do, we can't be much help! :-)

when did you last see them, do they know of you, where were they born and did they live ...

and have you searched family trees at this site to see whether they or someone in their family are members here with their names in their trees?

so on a quick check at http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

the parents married in Liverpool?

looking for their births to see whether they had middle names ... it seems Marguerite must have been married before as there are no Edwards births to match her surname at marriage

and I don't see a Graeme and Deborah born those years with matching mothers' surnames

were they born in England/Wales or somewhere else?

... you have Graeme R in your tree but no place of birth

this is Marguerite's death?

............... deleted 2006 death and reference to electoral roll as the marriage in question in England was a different couple

(had sent info about that couple and birth record for Graeme only)

This is what I know
Graeme Robert Edwards born 1963 littlehampton, county of West Sussex
Deborah Margaret Edwards born 1966 Auchtermuchty, Fife

Mother Marguerite Amy Baillie and father Robert Alexander Edwards

I think I possibly have met them when I was very small but I have no confirmed address.

The two that you sent me (thank you so much) I had also found but I was finding things difficult to cross reference, I also found a Deborah possibly now living in London?

Thanks so much for your help

not seeing a marriage for Marguerite and Robert maybe this was in Scotland too ?

Lynne

Lynne Report 13 Sep 2015 11:26

Yes there's a good chance the marriage was in Scotland

Lynne

Lynne Report 13 Sep 2015 11:27

Probably Dundee or Fife

I guess the birth for Graeme is the only thing that fits

the Marguerite and Robert marriage I had assumed, and the couple on the electoral roll, and the death of a Marguerite, are a coincidence then, not the same people ... I will delete that death since it seems to be those other people

Putting exact dates of birth here is actually against the rules (to protect people from identity theft)

so if you use the Edit link on your post you can change those to just the years.

Any idea of where Robert and Marguerite lived? Did they stay in Scotland? Did Marguerite marry again?

I know they definitely lived in Auchtermuchty, Fife before the divorce no idea if she married again
