Please can anyone help me to find the parents of the above. I believe she had a brother called Frank, but don't know his date of birth. |

How do you know Sarah's date of birth? Do you have a birth cert for her? If so what does it say? |

I think if Jennifer had Sarah's birth cert, she wouldn't be asking who the parents were |

Many thanks to you all for your help. I was thrown by a family history of Darah having a brother called 'Frank''. I am beginning to think he may have been a relative from another branch of the family who was close, and therefore referred to as 'Uncle' as a mark of respect. I had this as my mother was the youngest survivor of 9 children, and she was in her forties when I was born. I referred to most of my first cousins as aunt or uncle out of respect! |
