Are you trying to locate Evelyn Robinson today, or find out about her genealogy ?

What exactly are you trying to locate in terms of records ?

Hi

Thanks for replying
I'm trying to trace her and her family now i'm trying to get info on her half brothers and sister.
I know there was children by both parents i have found some with the surname griffiths but the names i know don't match but then again i might have only known nick names.
I know they didn't want anything to do with my father after he divorced my mother but to me that's in the past and nothing to do with me.

Its hard looking for "living" relatives on this site - the Salvation Army is very helpful in reuniting fractured families..

Hi

Thanks for that

I have found someone on here with this person in their tree but the person isn't in direct contact with her or her family.
She keeps saying it might not be the right one or doesn't reply to emails that i send but i know it is as soon as i mentioned her husbands first name my mother said the surname and then named her children.
Thats why i thought of putting a message on here to see if anybody knows of them.
I will give that site a try

Thank you

I have made contact with evelyn via a neighbour and friend of hers who was looking through the messages on another site.
I would like to thank the people who have contacted me regarding evelyn.
