Received a PM from Julie with thanks, and explained that many adopted children have separate trees at GR for their birth name/family, since probably the birth family would not know their adopted name, to search for them.

I'd suggest you put the various names in your family tree here at GR, Julie, so that if she or someone else searches, she'll find you.

There are five members who have people by that name born 1941-1944 in their trees. Sometimes people don't have accurate birthdates for their family members, and it's also possible the age you have isn't perfectly accurate.

(You have the son in your tree under his adopted name, but not his birth surname. You can have him as both, just by pretending they're different people, siblings of each other, e.g. Sorry if this sounds like prying -- saw your note at Ancestry.)

hi, it would have been November 1964 that is of great importance as she gave birth to a son then.

Trying to trace Miss Barbara Cook, aged 22 in 1964. believed to have worked in a printers, possibly in or around Leeds?????,We can pinpoint her locations in Leeds to Marion street and Domestic Terrace in November of 1964.These two locations are not necessarily her normal place of residence and neither street still exist. It is also possible that Barbara may not even be from the Leeds area. We do know that Barbara herself was adopted and we know she had one younger sister. any information would be very gratefully accepted, with many thanks in anticipation.
