I am trying to trace my cousin who I have never met, his mother and father split up when he was small and he has a younger brother Gearge. Ronalds father took him when they split and his mother kept his brother. I know he was born in devon in 1945,but they then moved to Hull where his mother was from. I was told that he then went with his father to either New Zealand or Australia. the last we heard from his father (also Ronald Francis ) was a photograph he sent to my late grandmother, he would have been about 3 on it. Ronald will be his 60's now but I would like him to know that he has a family that has never forgotten him.

Thank you so much for the information, I will follow it all up. Ronald senior was born in 1923 in Devon. I will order his birth certificate to confirm parentage.
