IRIS THERESA DEAN. Looking fo my birth mother Mary Donnelly ( thought now to be a false & possably, Mary McNamee daughter of Thomas MCnamee & Mary Brogan.) , not sure of year of birth, 1919 to 1924 ? Told she was quite young when she gave birth to me. I was born, Iris Theresa Donnelly, on 19 Dec 1939, at Dover Kent. I was adopted by Mary's aunt, Sarah Helen Dean (nee Devlin, nee McNamee) & Albert Dean. I have been told that Mary emigrated to the USA or Canada, in the 50's. Margaret & Harry Bell, ( Margaret being Mary's cousin ) were in contact with them over the years.My married name is Howell. Lost all contact with the old family. Can anyone help. ?
