She grew up with a family who perhaps only infomally adopted her. She had one (illgitimate) child, my father, in 1946 and five years later married a Richard (Dickie) Coombes, becoming step-mother to his five children. She died Ada (Molly) Coombes in August 1988, without leaving us with any idea of who my father's biological father was or much information about her own family. Any help in revealing the identities of either would be much appreciated!
