There are no Collins/Havill births showing for the correct area - the only one is in Southampton, and there is a corresponding Southampton marriage of a different Collins/Havill.

Was your mother born before the marriage?

Added:
Or was it she who was adopted?

Eileen's birth

There are 12 Havill/Stone births in Sheppey from 1931 to 1950

Marriages March quarter  1931   
Frank Havill Stone    Sheppey    2a   1733

Frank and Ena can easily be found on 1939, with many redacted children.

Frank Havill born 1904 in Sheppey, (Mother's maiden name Road) shows in 1911 with parents Philip and Susan, both born Sheerness.  They have been married 28 years, 17 children of whom 14 still living.

Have you joined Ancestry or F M P, and do you want to do the work yourself or let us do it all (bit boring for you).

Whichever, you do need the buy birth and marriage certificates if the full parish registers are not online, to back-up the information from the censuses and educated guesses as to the correct ancestors.

Probable parents' marriage:
Marriages June quarter 1883 
Phillip Havill     Sheppey    2a   1258    
Susan Road     Sheppey

Hi Chempat,

That is absolutely amazing information thank you so much!

I am more than happy to purchase certificates etc.

I am happy enough for people 'in the know' to do the work for me but I'm also more than happy to get involved in doing whatever I need to do.

Once again thank you so much for this information. Made my day.

Is Anthony David W Collins your biological grandfather, and do your want to research his line?

This looks like his birth:
Births June quarter  1936
Anthony D W Collins   mother's maiden name Parsons    Thanet    2a   1918   

He had an older brother who died, also called Anthony D W Collins, born June quarter 1932, died March quarter 1933.

Parents' marriage?
Marriages December quarter   1925 
William H Collins    Parsons    Sheppey    2a   2484   
Rose E M Parsons       Collins    Sheppey    2a   2484    

Think William died and Rose then marries James Newbury in 1947 in Sheppey.

Her death
Rose Elizabeth M Newbury died age 72 in June quarter 1976 in Sheppey
Born 8th December 1903

Think you will need Anthony's birth certificate to check correct parents, and their marriage certificate for more information on William H Collins, as do not know birth or death for him to find parents.
