Hi no I havent ruled out Hind - Florence/Florrie is the sister of my late grandmother who was born 11 Jan 1906, then adopted and living with adoptive parents in the 1911 Census. My late grandmother didnt know she had any blood siblings. I am trying to trace now what happened to Florence. Father Thomas Brown dies on return from India in Netley Hosp. (Brother born in India grew up with grandparents in Reading)

Hi neale

Your message and extensive time consuming research in my quest to trace my fathers unknown family history is incredible.
This evening I have written to Woodcote House and a historic group amd also The National Archives for the Netley Hospital amd will report back either way if I get a reply.
I agree with you that its probably an impossible mission to get the adoption details and unfortunately prior to my grandmothers death she asked a friend to destroy papers in a box and for  my parents to not see what was in it! Now guess adoption information was possibly there as she would have needed this for her passport application to prove change of name from Brown (birtb cert) to Hayward then marriage cert to Barraclough and deed poll record to Felton!!
Shame it was pre record keeping.
I will be back and wish you all the best in your continuing research for others.

 Hi

Unfortunately I cant seem to find the birth record of Annie Ruth Brown born Raven 1880-1882 in Reading. I only see info in the 1911 Census and her marriage cert. I must admit I am a complete beginner with this fascinating genelogy work! Any suggestions for searching for a birth cert please?
Again big thank you to all the contributors to this thread.
