Penelope E A Roberts born 1929 in Liverpool. Her mother's maiden name given as Curphey. In 1931 sailed from Liverpool to Valparaiso, Chile on the Orduna with Curphey Roberts who was born in 1886 (Possibly her mother?). Address was given as 60 Green Lane, Liverpool.
In 1946, aged 17, she sailed to New York on the 'Queen Elisabeth' and in 1955 again sailed to New York this time on the 'Parthia'.
She possibly has Irish Connections. Details of the New York sailings may be in the ‘British and Irish Roots Collection’ of FindMyPast but my subscription doesn’t give me access to this. However there is also some information on the Ellis Island site www.libertyellisfoundation.org - need to register but there is no charge.
Hope this helps and that I have the correct person!

there is no entry for Penelope on 1939 register.
Ellis and Annie are at this address in 1945.
Carla,I hope this helps you(espero que esto te ayude)
I don't think we can take this further as it has no connection with Birmingham.

Penélope EA Roberts nació en Liverpool en 1929. El apellido de soltera de su madre se llama Curphey. En 1931 navegó de Liverpool a Valparaíso, Chile en la Orduna con Curphey Roberts, quien nació en 1886 (¿Posiblemente su madre?). La dirección fue dada como 60 Green Lane, Liverpool.
En 1946, con 17 años, navegó a Nueva York en la 'Reina Elisabeth' y en 1955 navegó nuevamente a Nueva York esta vez en la 'Partia'.
Ella posiblemente tiene conexiones irlandesas. Los detalles de los viajes en Nueva York pueden estar en la "Colección de raíces británica e irlandesa" de FindMyPast, pero mi suscripción no me da acceso a esto. Sin embargo, también hay información en el sitio de Ellis Island www.libertyellisfoundation.org : es necesario registrarse, pero no hay cargos.
Espero que esto ayude y que tenga la persona correcta!

Thank you so much, really appreciated
