Have you put her name in the 'quick search' box at the top of the page?

There is another member Sharon who has same year and place of birth as your Joyce in her tree

Might be worth sending her a message

Good luck

So - she wasn't actually born Joyce 'Wilson' then ???

You need to find her maiden name as it is usual to add people to trees using the maiden name - you are more likely to find a match if you know what this was.

- You can do this by looking for the marriage, or the son's birth.

Do you have any dates, even if approximate, + areas?

When was John Anthony Wilson born and where?

If we find his birth it will have his mother Joyce maiden name

There is a Sharon on here who has a John Wilson born 1967 Stockport - It may be worth contacting here - via the 'quick search' at the top of page.

OOOps - have just realised that Selena said above that Sharon also had a Joyce under her married name born at the right time in the right place.

Really must be worth contacting her then.

Best of luck,
