I was trying to verify that the surname was Tomkins, and so was hoping that Michelle would get back to us as nothing showing from the marriage.

I agree that she is looking for 'dependants'

When was your mother born? And where?

What is/was her first name?

Were her parents married?

Is she alive?

Why do you think that the 1968 death is for her father?
