Have you tried looking for contacts on here? Use "search trees" above. As most of these relatives are more than likely to still be around, you could also try Facebook and Friends Reunited. In addition you could ask Jean to do an electoral register lookup for you. Her thread is on Records office called "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE" - easy to spot.

If you want to find Ivy's parents you might need her marriage cert to find out her father's name then we can search for her in 1911.
