Title: Phyllis Cliffe, nee Johnston (Surrey, London & Grimsby)
Post by: Wendus on Wednesday 03 June 15 19:51 BST (UK)

Phyllis B Johnston apparently had 4 marriages, in Surrey (to H Brown), Grimsby (to H Cliffe), Grimsby (to W Morton?) and Hampstead (to P Griffiths) respectively. A daughter was born into the second marriage, between Phyllis and Henry T Cliffe. She was born in 1947 in Surrey.

It is possible, but by no means 100% certain, that when the daughter was 5 years old, her then step-father adopted her and changed her surname to his.  I'd be interested and very grateful to hear from anyone who may be able to tell me more about Phyllis and/or, more especially her daughter.

Many thanks :)

I have also posted this on another board as I am 'clutching at straws' here, and as the family were in both areas, I'm not sure which one would be best ... so opted for both.

Is the daughter still alive? If so you will need to remove her name as Rootschat does don't allow us to to mention them.

Have you tried social media sites?

Locked to prevent further duplication of effort. The topic on the other board has several replies.
