Hi dib44, Thankyou for the information re marriages. It wouldn't be the Dooley marriage, as Mary was only 15 in 1960. It's definitely not the andrews marriage, as we have researched thoroughly into that one. But I have to say, that out of all the marriages we have sent for certificates, i have...

Thankyou for that insight to the Hotel as it was, and now is today. The sister we are searching for worked/lived at the Palm Court hotel from 1960-1964 that we know of. Was hoping to find if she is on the electoral role in 1966. Very interesting, and as you say sad that it is like it is now...

Thankyou horsencart. Unfortunately the electoral role section at the birmingham Central Library is closed until Sept 3rd. And they can't be viewed anywhere else, nor can they do a lookup! So i guess I'll have to wait til september. But many, many thanks Rosy

Hi Suzanne, Thankyou for that info, and for looking it up. The Christian names we have, if they are correct, are Lesley & Margaret. But that could be wrong. The Florence E Cope would be going back too far, as my sister didn't go in the home until then at the age of 5 years. But thankyou for the...

Thankyou Astonian. That is very nice to hear. It's so nice to read something good. But if anyone knows of foster parents with the surname COPE, 1955-1962 approx, in the Erdington cottage homes it would help us tremendously in our search for my sister please. My sister may have been put with...
