London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Adoption or not in 1918

Hi.. I am a half nephew of Robin so it would appear even though my father didn't know his 2 half brothers. I have some contact details for family members who I have contacted once before but were a bit shocked when I spoke to them. Feel free to email me. Nick Sands (my grandfather was Percival Wilkinson-Sands)

Thanks Startt ... can I ask where you found the original information about Patrick and being adopted? Who raised him after my grandfather?

Thanks Janeycanuck ... do you have any more info about Edith Emma Sands? I'm on Ansestry too but my tree has got a bit confused with her side of the family (probably because of the name change). I'd like to trace who her parents/grandparents were.

My goodness!! There was talk of a child out of wedlock but thought it was further back in history as to confuse matters the official name should be Sands-Wilkinson not Wilkinson-Sands. My great grandmother changed it unofficially when her husband vanished. This information is amazing that you have found. Thank you!!

Yes I did but it was for his career in the RAF. He also went to the US. Last records I could find were of him living in Iver and married to Betty. It's a small world because when it shows him living in Iver my mother was at school there not far from his house.

Hi I was hoping you might be able to give me some more information about Patrick Percival Wilkinson-Sands as tonight I have just discovered he is my uncle. My Grandfather was Percival Wilkinson-Sands and he kept Patrick a secret all his life and even my father didn't know the true name of his half brother and only knew he had such a brother after his father had passed away. I would like to find out if Patrick had another brother as there was a rumor that maybe there were 2 sons from my grandfather's first marriage. Also I would love to know if Patrick is still alive as I can't find many records about him. Any help would be much appreciated.
