My late husband Michael was the son of Frederick Shaw Hunter and Anastasia nee Heath, who married Boxing Day in 1938 at St. Wilfreds Church Bishop Auckland Co. Durham Frederick Hunters father is listed as John Hunter a warehouseman Frederick Hunter was living at 24 Princes St, Bishop Auckland. .Michael was born in 1942 in Shildon. After Anastasia's death Michael was adopted aged 18months by his Aunt Jane mary( known as Jennie) and Henry Gartland. Frederick had 2 sisters ,one a teacher.at the local primary school in Shildon. He played in a band , and was a talented musician. My husband tried to find him later on but people said that he had remarried and moved away. If anyone can help I would be grateful Thanks Val nice
