Rosie it has an address on her birth cert ... My BM address on my birth certificate is 2A Oldfield Road, Clifton, Bristol and 11 Snowden Road, Fishponds, Bristol - I have been told the latter was a home for unmarried mothers. The Clifton address is now offices by the look of it. The only other info I have is that my BM wrote to a lady (presumably at an adoption agency) from the Chest Hospital at Bradford upon Avon. She was writing to thank the lady for sending her a photo of me. It was the only piece of paper in my adoption file! Due to privacy laws I have not been able to discover if she was on staff or a patient there.

Winifreds birth was 15/9 1927 5 Brunswick square ( Hospital by the looks )
Mother Norah Alice Allen nee McCormack ... father Frederick Samuel Allen ( able seaman ) Sandover Road London

Margaret ( my lady in Canada ) was born in Bristol 1949 , mother was Winifred J Allen who says on cert she was born in Bristol but now proven to be Camberwell in London same as her siblings ... she says she was a student nurse ... there is no fathers name ...
