Trying to find Firth

I'm looking for FIRTH family members from Lincoln! I don't have much to go on but I am looking for: Siblings: Peter, Joyce and Sheila Firth, they were three of 6 or 7 brothers and sisters most of whom would have been born in the late 1920s through to the end of the 1930s, they lived in the Lincoln area for at least some of their lives up until the late 1960s at least and longer in some cases. Joyce married and her surname is Watson, she has 4 children I believe including a daughter called Tina and son called Michael. Sheila also married and her surname was Cross although she may have reverted to Firth after a divorce, she had a daughter called Wendy who was probably born around 1967/8 and may have moved away to Norfolk. Peter stayed in the Lincoln area with his family and I believe at least two of the siblings emigrated, possibly to Canada and Australia. I don't have names for the parents of these people although I believe the children were in foster homes at one point. Their father was a leather worker I think! I'm really keen to hear from anyone who is part of the Firth family or who may know them. Thanks for reading this! Trish Wyatt-Hawkins
