Gerard and Mary Catherine Jones
as you know from the other replies were married in 1952
according to Cheshire BMD this was in Stockport,and a civil or registrar attended service

now I may be missing something but I do not see a possible  child for them until 1960
when there is a male child born starting with A, and mother Jones might be worth having a closer look
did your friend mention Aunts Uncles or older siblings

Thank you all so much you have all been Brill.
I am slowly dragging out bits of information from this lady.

Peter was left in Liverpool Station as a baby. He was then taken into care in Manchester.
Mary and Gerard were told they could not have children they adopted a boy called him Kevin Reynolds. Later
they went back and adopted Peter.they were brought up as brothers.Both of the children were taken in care and taken to the same home.
I am trying to find the name of the home. I pray she still knows.
Thank you so much again. If I get any joy I will let you all know.Cheers Lep ;)

Assume at that time she was in some mother and baby home and had to give up the child to be adopted.

If he was abandoned at 4wks old I doubt he was born in a mother and baby home.

If the 2 Reynolds children are still living, their names should not be on the board.

The term "grandparents" is  ??? me as it doesn't appear from what you say they were biological grandparents?  Because if they were then it was their son or daughter who had the baby and that doesn't seem to be the case.

Was it that the boys believed they were being brought up by their real grandparents and referred to them as such?

Sorry if I'm not getting it  :-[

Not getting it. OK The boys were brought up by Mary and Gerard they were not the real G/parents.
When they were older they were told.OK.

The boys were taken to Nazareth House Manchester run by Nuns.  Childrens Home.It is now a care home for the elderly.
