hello, I am looking for descendants of Rosemary Burke who lived in Romford Essex in the 1950's. If you know of any would appreciate it if you could contact me. I am particularly trying to trace a Lesley M Stone who I think was Rosemary's daughter.

any help with my search would be very much appreciated

Welcome to the boards Anne.

Have you used the Search All Members trees facility - top right under Search - to see if she is listed on anyone's trees? If so send them a message asking how they are related.
Its unlikely that any descendent will stumble upon this thread, but you never know.

Is Burke, Rosemary's married or maiden surname? Ditto Stone?
When were both of them born (approx year) to help us look for records.

As I'd already started compiling this while Ann was also searching....
.......
Ah – Rosemary Burke married a Cyril L Stone in 1953.
Would Rosemary have been born end of 1933 into Jan-Mar 1934?

Freebmd show 3 Stone/Burke births in Essex
Lesley M in 1954 then 2 boys Stephen M P 1956 and Colin C A in 1959.

Cyril might be on the current ER in Essex – you can view his Southend address on http://www.searchelectoralroll.co.uk/Electoral_Roll_Search.asp

If you were to write and explain your interest, he may be able to tell you were his children are.

Not seeing any further record for Lesley M although there is a Marina L marriage in Chelmsford in 1981.

At Anne's request, details sent of Rosemary's possible second marriage and current address.

She is aware that both the Rosemary and the spouse are elderly (65+ on ER) and will be tactful if she chooses to make written contact. Anne appreciates that our assumptions could be incorrect and is considering purchasing various (discussed) certifcates first.
