Hi Everyone

I would like to find out about my cousin who left the family with his father after the death of his mother (my aunt).

Don't know much about him but here goes.

His name is John Clayton c1934, his father is also John Clayton and his mother was Ruth Martin (my mothers sister). After Ruth passed away when her son was about fourteen, his father and him moved away from the family (so the story goes?).

I have been told that my grandparents tried to trace them but without success.
It would be nice to know how his life went and there is a lot of confusion in my mother's family tree and not many people still alive to speak to so any help would be greatly appreciated!
