Just to let you all know that I have found Joan, she is still alive and living in Florida! Wonderful and hopefully she will be able to give answers but she may be too old now. She has a daughter who I am in touch with now but she knows little of her grandparents as she was born in USA. |

Yes, thanks for the info. I didn't know about Norcap. I have his birth certificate and it is marked adopted. It seems that she calls herself Joan on all things official. I have found a Stefan J. Robinson-Williams with an address in Kent so am wondering if he may have been adopted by a member of the family as it seems such an unusual name but am unsure how to make an approach without causing any offence. |

I would be inclined to pursue the Stefan link as it's a fairly uncommon name. I can see the birth you mean. If it were me I would get that birth cert first of all to ensure it's the same mother. Problem is, there is a fair chance he was adopted too. If you find it's the right person it might be worth going through Norcap to see if he is regisered there, assuming you can't find any other trace of him.. I am assuming you are a relative? |

Thanks, it is a complicated search because I know that she had an illegitimate daughter who she called Megan and who was adopted in 1944. I wonder if she also had another child in 1945 called Stefan, details seem to be the same ie mothers name and her Mothers maiden name. How can I confirm this? I also think that she may have emigrated to USA in 1946. I have found an address for a Joanne Robinson-Williams in Scaramento in 1992 but have not found a death for her although she would be very old now. Where do I go from here? |

You should be able to find her birth on FreeBMD. you would need the cert for further information on her parents |

I am trying to find information regarding a Joan O.M. RobinsonWilliams who I think was born in 1921 in Kent. She could also have been known as Joanne O.M. Robinson-Williams or simply Williams. Her Mothers maiden name was Smith. |
