I think you will find that more than one person helped you here, so it is a good idea to thank all rather than just one person.

Also you did not say whether you have contacted the other tree owners or that you are aware that your wife may have another sibling..and her nephew?? could have a fairly new tree on this site if you wish to try and contact him

My wife was born at Landderwen Nursing Home, Colwyn Bay on 24/06/1941 and named on the register (entry no.171) as Julia .
Her mother is entered as Eva Castley - formerly Pickthall - of Sefton, Colwyn Crescent, Colwyn Bay, Denbighshire.
On 7th October 1941, my wife had been entered on the Adopted Children Register (Application no. 46845) as Jennifer Ann Mawdsley and moved
to her new adopting parents' house in Southport.
We have been married 47 years and I am keen to add more detail to her entry on my Family Tree.
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
David Gauntlett
